D's going to school!

More time for food experimenting, more time for home cleanliness, more time for myself... All of that will soon become a reality as D goes to school next year, Jan 2012. Selfish thoughts aside, I'd like D to learn more too - from school, from teachers and friends. So... It's a win-win situation actually ^~^;;

Just a couple of items more (his school shoes and a handmade name tag by me) and we'll be ready to roll! :D

Lazy lunch for D

Apart from being lazy, I was running out of ideas on D's lunch menu. Having searched the mart through and through, it suddenly dawned upon me - why not give that yummy-looking canned creamy mushroom soup a go?



Smothered toasted wholemeal bread with low fat cream cheese and cut it into 4 strips. D finished them in no time.

Picnic-time!

Inka came up with a great idea to have family picnic one day and the whole idea got me very excited! Attendees would be DD, Inka, Mr. Blockhead, our 'lil people and myself. The date was set and we prayed really hard for good weather. Thankfully, the skies were cloudy with cooling breezes...

Inka prepared a hot favorite for everyone - a non-spicy Nasi Goreng with belachan. It's easy to see why we were all busy helping ourselves round after round, eh?



On my end, things were much simpler - choc chip loaf & milk bread with nutella spread; french toast rolls with mozzarella cheese and another version with peanut butter.




To save myself the embarrassment, I ate most of the bread ^~^;;

Waffles Breakfast

It was a wonderful morning. That prompted me to make something different for my wonderful boys. After ransacking my fridge, I heaved a sigh of relief - I had enough ingredients to make some warm, fluffy waffles for them. Top it with bananas and blueberries, with maple syrup drizzled over. Mmm-mmm!
