Boring Medical Update: I went to the ortho and the hip looks good. No need to see him again unless a problem should arise. He gave me a referral to a new "back guy" if I want to investigate the upper back pain. It's ranking a little low on my to do list just now, we'll see.
On a much more interesting note, Riley and I did some baking! It was cold and rainy today and I felt like baking. I also had a whole lot of fresh strawberries on hand (bogo sale). We started with a just-add-milk muffin mix for cranberry orange muffins. Then I added a whole bunch of fresh strawberries. I wish I'd gotta two packages of mix because they only make six muffins each package and we could have done with a dozen.
I've been a lot more prepared for baking projects lately, which is wonderful. Getting up on a cold rainy day and having everything you need is such a gift. My joints complain a little softer when there are goodies to eat and a nice warm kitchen. I feel resourceful for mixing in fresh fruit and having a few muffin mixes on hand. I think we'll have to make these again for sure.
I cut up the remaining strawberries for snacks. They won't last around here. I'm planning on making the kids some french toast this weekend I'll probably toss a few on top. They add a lot of color to things.
