The Bigs got takeout from Monkless to celebrate their 13th anniversary. I got my favorite – poutine (fries covered in gravy) topped with two runny eggs.
They got mussels. They can keep their mussels.
Smoke has cleared. Porch breakfasts are BACK!
Playdate with Hadley. 4+ costume changes. Army…
A firefighter and astronaut who help hurt animals…
Superheroes…
and chefs…
Our neighbor Becky gave me a gift certificate to Locavore for catsitting Dazzler. I spent the whole thing on wild foraged steak because I wanted to make jerky.
It turned out great. Jerky dance, jerky dance everyone look at your hands.
I spent two hours playing with a sheet the other day.
If it’s fun, it’s fun.
Grandparents and Uncle Chris, you can probably relate to this one. The Bigs take you out for some ‘fun’. We are on our way back to the car when they say ‘oh, let’s go this way, it’s not much longer.’ 8+ miles later we were back at the car. I’m 5. My wheels are 16 inches. I have NO GEARS. I toughed it out though – bribes of gelato got me through.
Gelato and jerky party!
Some other things we ate this week. Mango, avocado, black beans, and seitan burritos:
Pop’s pasta recipe (using our homegrown tomatoes):
Chocolate avocado pie with almond coconut crust. OH YES, you read that right. Avocado. And it’s delicious.
Pops pasta using your home grown tomatoes looks great. How was it? Chocolate avocado not so sure. Auntie Cheryl is probably going to want you to watch Curtis.
Such a very busy boy! You definitely keep your “bigs” hopping. play dates, biking, cooking. Glad the smoke has cleared enough for breakfast on the porch. The jerky looks good and so did all the other foods. Mussels are my favorite. Did you, M, even try them?
I hope everyone liked pops pasta dish, I love it! Playing with a sheet for 2 hours certainly requires a great imagination. Hope you can now play outside at the Tree.
Eight extra miles for such a small dish of gelato? Didn’t seem to slow you down very much.
Poutine! You must have some French canadian in you. Great for after skiing! I guess you are little bit of a flexavor these days
