Crazy for Crazy Cubes

Lily found a Strawberry Shortcake cookbook (80's edition, of course) recently and has been super excited to try out some of the recipes. Last night we made "Crazy Cubes" (basically ice cubes made from colorful juices). As you can see from the pictures below, Lily was thrilled with the results and enjoyed her crazy cubes in a margarita glass - party on!

Moms & babies playdate

On Monday afternoon, we attended a moms & babies playdate. The "babies" ranged from only weeks old all the way up to Lily's age (including siblings).

Making snacks the night before. I'm not sure where this pose came from.

This is not a great picture, but our treats were made to look like eggs & bacon. They are actually made of pretzel sticks, melted white chocolate and a yellow m&m. They are super easy - a quick and manageable project for Lily to do, and they're fun & tasty.

Doesn't she ever tire of all the doting? Really.

Chow time!

After the zoo on Friday, Lily and Angela whipped up some gourmet homemade pizzas. Here they are working on their special white pizza.

William worked on getting his hands on his own pizza.


What would a trip to Memphis be without some bbq? We say, "Yes, please!"

Yay for visiting with Aunt Angela!
