The whole shebang of last week in one post. Here goes. Breakfast on Monday was the last of this savory bread and fried eggs. Breakfast on Tuesday was out – I had a savory crepe with hash browns at Crepeville. Because Crepeville’s portions are awesomely massive I had leftovers for breakfast on Wednesday. Which I paired with two fried eggs. Thursday I made steel cut oats in the rice cooker (the crock pot was already occupied) for our whole family. I topped mine with a bunch of non-nut things (aka seeds galore) – including… Read more >

Making quick breads is really as easy as it gets. Kind like learning your A,B,C’s – once you figure out the basics, it’s a snap! I promise I didn’t plan the name of this bread around that little theme, but it was too perfect to NOT call this ABCD bread. If you like dates, you will like this bread. If you don’t (you’re crazy but oh well), you could sub in raisins. It doesn’t have much of a rise, which I may try to figure out in future versions. Maybe extra baking powder or… Read more >

I’m so behind in posting!! Indulge me as I recap last weekend… Thursday night we got a surprise visit from Kyle’s dad. He was passing through Davis so he spent the night at our place. He arrived during patty-cake’s dinner time. More peas for P, please! After we all played for a while, it was bedtime for the little guy. We had called in a take-out order from Mermaid sushi earlier, so the boys went to pick it up while I nursed P to sleep. Yes, that’s a sushi order for 3. 🙂 Love the… Read more >

Trrrrrrrrouble. [Don’t be deceived by this photo, he’s not crawling. At. All. He rolls to get everywhere. He’s surprisingly mobile for only using rolling as a means of travel. I’m sure I’ll be swallowing my words later but it would be nice if he showed some signs of crawling. Like maybe contact with the ground. On the other hand, he’s basically ready to walk since he holds himself up using the coffee table or wall as support…hmmm…tummy time to standing? Kids are confusing.] On Thursday my parents came to Davis to visit for a few… Read more >
