oat and maple syrup scones
The Sleep Fairy has left our apartment. I’m not sure what we did to her (I hope it wasn’t my cooking), or what we could leave out (teeth? might she be a distant cousin of the Tooth Fairy? cookies and milk? maybe Santa can help with these things?) to lure her to come back but we sleeping and now we are sleeping and we miss it terribly. Also, getting to the end of sentences while still remembering what they were about when we started them.
