Brownies!

The homeschool park day was canceled today because of the ground still being wet from all the rain we got recently. So, I made brownies with the girls to make up for the disappointment! They loved it. :) Technically, this post could go into either the homeschool blog (since this was a learning activity too, and was making up for a canceled homeschool activity) or this cooking one (for obvious reasons) since it ties into both. I chose this one. It just seemed to fit MORE. ha!

Rachel's turn to help.

When are they going to be done?!

Is it as good as it looks?

Rachel and Michaela with the finished product. Yummy!

Pasta Roni

Hmmm? Been a while since I've posted a dinner. We have been eating, really! Just haven't gotten on here.

Last night we had Pasta Roni Angel Hair Pasta with Herbs. The girls loved it! It's rare when we have a time when they don't complain about what I make. They're so picky. With it we had corn on the cob from our garden. YUMMY! Well, Brandon and I had it. The girls don't like the corn on the cob. *shock* See what I mean about picky? And some frozen store peas that I steamed with the corn. The girls like the peas. :) Rachel said that she "liked the peas better than the pasta. Peas are my favorite vegetable." Peas are so yummy, so no wonder! The corn baffles me though. Rachel says she likes the store corn on the cob better than the garden corn on the cob. . . . . Humph!
