Wordless Wednesday ~ This and That

Dim Sum Sunday ~ Kids Choice

Today we turned Elizabeth loose in the kitchen, with an added twist of whatever she cooked, Shamu had to cook too. Great twist Shamy!

Elizabeth's pick was Spaghetti with Sicilian Meatballs.

She started out by chopping up some basil for the sauce.

Adding a little olive oil.

Couple cans of diced tomatoes, and the sauce was ready to simmer on the stove for about an hour.

On to the meatballs...

Grinding up some pepper to add to the milk, egg, breadcrumbs, and sweet sausage.

Mix, mix, mix.


She had a blast rolling out the meatballs!
Which really surprised me, I thought she'd ask either John or me to do this part, but she was in there with both hands.

Way to go Elizabeth!

You made us a fabulous dinner of spaghetti and meatballs.

Head on over to The Karmic Kitchen for more kid fun.

As an added bonus ~ Shamy's beautiful pictures.

Wordless Wednesday ~ Flamingos!

Carrot Happiness

What a great weekend we had! Lots of sunshine and warm weather.


It felt so good being outside, pulling up carrot treasures, getting our hands dirty.

Best part of all though, was enjoying Elizabeth's laughter and Ollie's silliness.

They're such a pair!

Happy Birthday Mom

We love you so much!

I hope your day is filled with lots of love and sunshine. :)
