To Whet your Appetite...

I made crepes yesterday. I'm trying to start new traditions in my house (many of you know about these). Sundays we have breakfast for dinner and Thursdays are pizza night. I like both a LOT because A) they simplify my grocery shopping and B) they don't have to be EXACTLY the same every week, which is why I always resisted weekly food nights before. Anyhow, Joel and Brittany flew in last night from their vacation, and it was their anniversary, and I wanted to do something a little better than normal. I happened to have some lime curd from an earlier craving, so...we had crepes with fresh fruit (strawberries, peaches), cream cheese mousse, lime curd, bananas, nutella...yogurt, honey...whatever. I actually skipped the nutella/banana combo to have THREE of the lime curd/strawberry/mousse ones. Mmmm. I'm making myself hungry. Anyhow, I was proud of myself because I'm not very experienced with crepes.

I've been in a crafty mood lately, which doesn't bode well for my to-do list. I've been making a few things for the boys bday, and I've been stalking blogs. Check out the clever tutorials on this blog. I think I'll end up making maybe half of these! But esp the baby legwarmers :)

So, occasionally after the boys do something I've asked them to, I'll say "excellent work, Iago" because I watched a lot of Aladdin when I was a kid. Then, the boy in question will give me a look and respond "I'm not Iago." For some reason, this cracks me up.

Scumbito. the boys word for mosquito, in case you missed it.

even with my new camera, she's pretty wiggly...
