Gingerbread House

November 30, 2008

Friday, Wyatt and I put together a gingerbread house. This is the second year in a row we’ve done this and I’m hoping that it’s going to become a tradition for us to make one every year on the day after Thanksgiving.

I’ll admit it: this was not my most inspired week as far as the lunch-making went. I’m getting kind of bored with the lunches I’ve been packing. Fruit, salami, tofu, meatballs. Snore.
Also, Wyatt is having one of those weeks where he’s being super-picky and refusing to eat almost everything I make him for dinner or [...]

Meal Planning…er…Wednesday

November 12, 2008

OK, so my big goal for this week is to make dinner at home every single night for seven days. Yikes! To many of you, this would probably be no big deal, but we are really bad about getting take out when we are tired, so this is a challenging for me.
We started last night, [...]
