November

January 24th, 2010 · 4 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, dave, family, food, siblings, spencer, tina

The highlights from November include Bridget’s 4th birthday and Thanksgiving. For months, Dave had been teasing Bridget that we would be skipping her birthday and that she would have to stay 3 years old for another year. Her reactions varied from day to day. Either she knew he was kidding, or she was sincerely devastated. […]

Character Pancakes

Since you all asked… I went ahead and posted my dad’s recipe for Pantry Pancakes on The Slotted Spoon. You’re welcome. It should be noted that the character pancakes from my “Grandpa’s Pancakes” post can acutually be made with any pancake batter, as long as its thin enough to flow from the tip of the […]

Grandpa’s Pancakes

May 30th, 2009 · 6 Comments · bridget, family, food, random

Growing up, my dad would make us these fun-shaped pancakes. I remember a lot of mickey mouse heads and vaguely remember a character with a large hat… goofy maybe? Or the wolf from the Three Little Pigs story. He got pretty creative with them. Lots of shapes, and lots of fun memories. Last month the […]

Shrimp and Mushrooms

May 26th, 2009 · 2 Comments · bridget, food, random

I’ve always been impressed at the diverse foods that Bridget is willing to try. Sometimes she even surprises herself (and me) and likes new/different things. Now, at just 3 1/2 years of age, she has a bit of an expensive taste. Its a curious thing. Even in her candy choices… she knows what chocolate is, […]

My Cousin, Liz

April 28th, 2009 · 2 Comments · bridget, family, food, random, tina

I have a cousin. Liz. Or “Little Lizzie,” as we used to call her. She is three months older than me… and as kids we got along smashingly. We used to have sleepovers at my [parents] house on my birthday, and since the next day was April Fools Day, we’d stay up late playing pranks […]

Sushi Night

April 13th, 2009 · 4 Comments · food, random

I’ve seen a lot of recipes for Sushi floating around the internet lately. And I’ve known quite a few people that have made it… I wanted to try too! So I talked to my neighbor – who just happens to frequent ‘Happy Sushi’ – we set up a time and the rest is history! I […]

Make Your Own Kind of Music

March 26th, 2009 · 6 Comments · dave, domestic attempts, food, random

I mentioned a couple of posts ago that we had a Dharma-themed ‘party’ for Dave’s birthday. I use the word ‘party’ pretty loosely since it was a rather intimate group – Dave’s not really into big parties. Sunday night we invited one of Dave’s good friends over. We visited, had dinner, sang, had Dave open […]

Ok. I did it. I’ve been wanting to start a seperate food blog for awhile now, and I finally did it!! Yay! I wanted a place to keep and organize my recipes. A place I could send my mom or my sister to when they ask for one of these recipes. A place to collect […]

I *AM* Bakerella

March 19th, 2009 · 4 Comments · domestic attempts, food, random

Ok. So, I’m not really Bakerella. But I assume you already knew that. She’s amazing. Her cake pops, cupcake pops, cupcake bites, and basically everything else she makes is awesome. She is incredibly talented, and I love to look at her site and pretend I could make such cool looking things. If you haven’t visited […]
