winding down

It was a good week, but I'm glad the weekend is here, even if my husband has to work. Sometimes I just enjoy cooking whatever is left in the fridge...in this case, I need to empty it out to give it a good cleaning, as I finish using up the last remnants of CSA food.

Ryan's lunch: 3 kinds of crackers; a tiny Pez pack from Halloween; cucumber slices; soy cheese & Tofurky "bears"; grapes; hidden underneath are celery sticks; on the side a flax plus pumpkin granola bar (a free sample from the food festival last weekend).

Our meals for the day...

...roasted cauliflower &
broccoli; cous cous; spicy
tomato & "bacon" strips.

And for dinner...

...chips; 6 layer bean dip;
plate of veggies & apple
slices...









Maia is entering this dress-up
stage which is totally foreign
to me after 3 boys!












All week long we've enjoyed these fabulous seed pods outside of the school when we go to pick up AJ. We've read The Tiny Seed a few times at home.












Maia loves watching them
float away on the wind...
"ooooooooooohhhh!"
