class="post-content"> <p>This blog turned 11 back on April 16th! I somehow always miss my blogiversary (does anyone still use that word?), and it’s also been a couple of months <a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/03/21/hs-7th-birthday-weekend/">since I last posted</a>. The week before this blog’s anniversary, we went back east to NJ to visit my mom for H’s spring break, and I got to spend a couple of nights on my own in NYC. The trip was fantastic for so many reasons. Adam gave me a ticket to finally see Hamilton for Christmas, and I just had the most amazing time. And it was great for H to revisit her hometown. She’d been missing NJ a lot, and lately starting to compare what she missed about NJ to what she had in WA. But she came back home to WA with a new appreciation for this new home we’re making in a way I don’t think she would have without a visit back to NJ. After 10 months away, she has changed so much, and I think she was able to enjoy the place where she was born but then get back to her new life out here.</p> <p><a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/05/27/april-this-blog-turned-11-and-we-went-back-east/" class="more-link">Read more on April in One Post: This Blog Turned 11, and We Went Back East…</a></p> </div> </div>  <div class="bar"> <div class="share">  <a class="share-twitter" onclick="window.open('http://twitter.com/home?status=April in One Post: This Blog Turned 11, and We Went Back East - https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/05/27/april-this-blog-turned-11-and-we-went-back-east/','twitter','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=April in One Post: This Blog Turned 11, and We Went Back East - https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/05/27/april-this-blog-turned-11-and-we-went-back-east/" title="April in One Post: This Blog Turned 11, and We Went Back East" target="blank"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a>  <a class="share-facebook" onclick="window.open('http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/05/27/april-this-blog-turned-11-and-we-went-back-east/','facebook','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;" href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/05/27/april-this-blog-turned-11-and-we-went-back-east/" title="April in One Post: This Blog Turned 11, and We Went Back East" target="blank"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a> <a class="share-google" href="https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/05/27/april-this-blog-turned-11-and-we-went-back-east/" onclick="window.open('https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/05/27/april-this-blog-turned-11-and-we-went-back-east/','gplusshare','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;"><i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i></a> <a onClick="MyWindow=window.open('http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/05/27/april-this-blog-turned-11-and-we-went-back-east/&media=https://www.jackiereeve.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/EWCB7090-copy.jpg&description=April in One Post: This Blog Turned 11, and We Went Back East','MyWindow','width=600,height=400');

Today’s Saturday, and the first storm was last Sunday night. School was closed for two days, and then another (smaller) storm came in Friday at lunchtime, so all the local schools closed early. My birthday is just a few minutes away now, and yet another snowstorm is set to head our way either tomorrow night or Monday, I think. And here’s the thing we’re learning about Washington–they don’t have a lot of snow plows.</p> <p><a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/09/snowfall-in-washington/" class="more-link">Read more on Snowfall in Washington…</a></p> </div> </div>  <div class="bar"> <div class="share">  <a class="share-twitter" onclick="window.open('http://twitter.com/home?status=Snowfall in Washington - https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/09/snowfall-in-washington/','twitter','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=Snowfall in Washington - https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/09/snowfall-in-washington/" title="Snowfall in Washington" target="blank"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a>  <a class="share-facebook" onclick="window.open('http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/09/snowfall-in-washington/','facebook','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;" href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/09/snowfall-in-washington/" title="Snowfall in Washington" target="blank"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a> <a class="share-google" href="https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/09/snowfall-in-washington/" onclick="window.open('https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/09/snowfall-in-washington/','gplusshare','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;"><i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i></a> <a onClick="MyWindow=window.open('http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/09/snowfall-in-washington/&media=https://www.jackiereeve.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_2021_edited-1-copy.jpg&description=Snowfall in Washington','MyWindow','width=600,height=400'); return false;" style="cursor:pointer;" target="_blank" id="pinterest-share"><i class="fa fa-pinterest"></i></a> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="masonr"> <div class="post post-17610 type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-food category-home category-projects tag-baking tag-farmhouse-life tag-studio tag-thekid">   <a class="featured-image" href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/whoopie-pies-in-my-new-studio-kitchen/" title="Whoopie Pies in My New Studio Kitchen"><img width="565" height="389" src="https://www.jackiereeve.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/DSC07509_edited-1-565x389.jpg" class="attachment-medium-image size-medium-image wp-post-image" alt="" srcset="https://www.jackiereeve.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/DSC07509_edited-1-565x389.jpg 565w, https://www.jackiereeve.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/DSC07509_edited-1-300x206.jpg 300w, https://www.jackiereeve.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/DSC07509_edited-1-768x528.jpg 768w, https://www.jackiereeve.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/DSC07509_edited-1-590x406.jpg 590w, https://www.jackiereeve.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/DSC07509_edited-1-976x671.jpg 976w" sizes="(max-width: 565px) 100vw, 565px" /></a> <div class="clear"></div> <div class="frame"> <div class="title-wrap"> <h2 class="entry-title"><a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/whoopie-pies-in-my-new-studio-kitchen/" title="Whoopie Pies in My New Studio Kitchen">Whoopie Pies in My New Studio Kitchen</a></h2> <div class="title-meta"> <span><i class="fa fa-user"></i><a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/author/admin/" title="Posts by jackie" rel="author">jackie</a></span> <span><i class="fa fa-calendar"></i><a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/">January 29, 2019</a></span> <span class="categories"><i class="fa fa-align-justify"></i><a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/category/old-blog/eating-stuff/food/" rel="category tag">Food</a>, <a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/category/old-blog/family-life/home/" rel="category tag">Home</a>, <a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/category/old-blog/projects/" rel="category tag">Projects</a></span> <span class="tags"><i class="fa fa-tag"></i><a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/tag/baking/" rel="tag">baking</a>, <a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/tag/farmhouse-life/" rel="tag">farmhouse life</a>, <a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/tag/studio/" rel="tag">studio</a>, <a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/tag/thekid/" rel="tag">the kid</a></span> </div> </div> <div class="post-content"> <p>Whoopie pies are just the best, and they’re easy to make at home with kids. Whoopie pies, we’ve learned, just aren’t really a thing in Washington. And they’re H’s favorite treat, and something she’s been missing from NJ (Whole Foods made really good ones back east, but all the baked goods at Whole Foods here in WA are too…healthy). So, I’ve started making them. The Christmas batch was such a hit that she wanted to help me make some more this past weekend. Sunday night while my beef roast cooked we made them for dessert.</p> <p><a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/whoopie-pies-in-my-new-studio-kitchen/" class="more-link">Read more on Whoopie Pies in My New Studio Kitchen…</a></p> </div> </div>  <div class="bar"> <div class="share">  <a class="share-twitter" onclick="window.open('http://twitter.com/home?status=Whoopie Pies in My New Studio Kitchen - https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/whoopie-pies-in-my-new-studio-kitchen/','twitter','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=Whoopie Pies in My New Studio Kitchen - https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/whoopie-pies-in-my-new-studio-kitchen/" title="Whoopie Pies in My New Studio Kitchen" target="blank"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a>  <a class="share-facebook" onclick="window.open('http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/whoopie-pies-in-my-new-studio-kitchen/','facebook','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;" href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/whoopie-pies-in-my-new-studio-kitchen/" title="Whoopie Pies in My New Studio Kitchen" target="blank"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a> <a class="share-google" href="https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/whoopie-pies-in-my-new-studio-kitchen/" onclick="window.open('https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/whoopie-pies-in-my-new-studio-kitchen/','gplusshare','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;"><i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i></a> <a onClick="MyWindow=window.open('http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/01/29/whoopie-pies-in-my-new-studio-kitchen/&media=https://www.jackiereeve.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/DSC07509_edited-1.jpg&description=Whoopie Pies in My New Studio Kitchen','MyWindow','width=600,height=400');

The moms went for coffee, and Adam and I stayed to take photos of the girls picking out their own special unicorn horns, making unicorn crafts, eating unicorn cupcakes, and solving clues for the store’s magic mirror, which spoke to them and transformed them from little girls into magical unicorns.
