Cooking, Crayons, and Care Packages

This past week, we have:

Made homemade bath crayons!

Eaten lots of meals at home:

I made homemade chicken noodle soup with oven braised garlic brussel sprouts.

I used this recipe.

David has cooked a few meals out on the grill.

I've made homemade {nondairy} banana muffins.

We're not allergic to milk or eggs, but this is a great recipe

when you find yourself out of eggs,

like we were. : )

Those muffins were so, so soft and moist. 

Biting into them, it felt like eating cookie dough.

Dreamy. : )

I used this recipe to make them.

And I have, of course, made meals and snacks for Harbor.

I've considered taking a daily picture of his meals, not only to document them, but to show you some of the strange combinations he loves.

Point in case, mac and cheese with olives. : )

I suppose he needs that food to keep up his energy

 for marathon train track building!

{Disclosure:}

Harbor has a huge closet full of clothes,

but those camo sweats are his "favorite",

so you may end up seeing them a lot.

As in, like every post. : )

He also needs lots of fuel to rip open big care packages sent all the way

from home sweet home in Arkansas.

We've been burning calories today ripping up the landscaping in the front yard.

Those sad bushes were so overgrown, so unsightly, and so.. not me.

Pictures to come soon! : )
