Ostrich omelet and Pinkini bread

This week has been fun, so I wanted to write about it.

K has always wanted an ostrich egg shell, so when he stopped at an ostrich ranch on the way home from Tucson and they had eggs for sale, he bought one. When he made it for our breakfast, it was comparable to about 18 regular eggs. It tasted a little bit gamey, but ketchup fixed that.

All the boys went to the father/sons campout this weekend. They got to catch crawdads and go rock climbing. Us girls made a trip to the outlet mall, where I found an easter dress (with sleeves!) on clearance at gymboree for $11.

Baby is six months old tomorrow. I made her homemade rice cereal (inspired by my sister). She doesn't know how to eat off a spoon yet, but she likes the cereal and it is funny to watch her slurping it up. She also ate an animal cracker. I held onto one end and she sucked on the other until it dissolved.

I walked out to check the garden today and the zucchinis had gone from 3 inches long to 8 inches long in three days. Ack! We had zucchini for dinner AND dessert. M asked what I was making and thought I said "pinkini bread". I bet she would like that kind. She has been coloring strawberry shortcake coloring pages all day and her pink colored pencil is half the size of the rest of her pencils.

Have a wonderful Mother's day.
