My Apple Crisp

My mom turned on the oven in the morning to warm up the kitchen, and asked me to bake something. Since we didn’t have eggs I couldn’t do muffins, so I made an apple crisp. There was Granola in the topping and honey mixed in with the apples. It was delicious.

White Chocolate Mocha
It was just Nathan, Jared and I at home and Jared brought me a White Chocolate Mocha from Los Gatos Roasting Company. Paradise in a cup…

Symphony
Jared was given two free tickets to the San Jose Symphony by his violin teacher, Susan Stein (who plays violin in the symphony). He and I went to see the show, in the California Theater in Downtown San Jose.
