Potatoes, Pears and Puddles


Ellie and Abby LOVE helping me cook and I love that they want to help.  They also love 'make your own' food like tacos, salads and baked potatoes.  The other night we had a baked potato bar and it was a big hit!

Our sweet neighbor gave us a bunch of tiny pears so we decided to make our first ever pear tart.  Ellie is an expert egg-cracker and ingredient measurer.   Abby is the official 'ingredient pourer' and Farmer's Market honey drizzler.  The tart was pretty tasty for our first attempt! 


It has rained pretty much alllllll week.  We're so over it (although it's given us a good excuse to stay inside and de-clutter the girls' bedrooms!).  But it did lighten to a little drizzle yesterday evening and we went outside to stomp in puddles and get some wiggles out!
