Things have been quiet here, sorry. But I have kept a list of a few things that I wanted to share with you all! Hooray!
Such a fun idea! Families reading the same book aloud and then of course her SUPER cute "extras" to go with each book! Just shoot her an email saying your family would like to participate. This Thursday she is announcing the first book. We love to read aloud and are always looking for new titles! Currently we are on book #5 of the Nancy Drew series! My grandma bought be them when I was young and boy are the kids enjoying them!
Ok so a little story for you all, first you must know I am a dill pickle fanatic fan. ;) Back in high school I got to go to Edmonton Canada for EFY and also got to stay with an awesome family, while there I discovered dill pickle potato chips! Seriously! If I had a contact in Canada or lived close enough to the border I would totally be eating these right now. Anyway a friend from college who happens to be Canadian but who now lives in the States (but no where near me) was flaunting her dill pickle popcorn spice! Seriously I am thinking I should move to Canada just for the dill pickle love! So I have been wanting some to say the least. Which lead to some googling and then this recipe. It was pretty good! But I'm still hoping to get my hands on the good stuff...
:: SARDINES!
I know! Seriously Danna? My Daddy was always a sardine guy and it always grossing me out! Well last summer when my boys stayed the week with my Dad he and Jake ate quite a bit of sardines and saltines from what I have gathered. I know they are so good for you, and I know they are sustainable and one of the cleaner fish, but... Well I buy them for the kids because they are so good for them and really its and easy peasy snack! Recently a friend shared her sardines with me, Bar Harbor Maine sardines. And... they were totally good! Of course they are a little expensive, so I buy some of those and some of the Trader Joe's ones the kids don't mind. ;)
A Baby Sardine

Saw her first submarine:
She was scared and watched
through a peephole.
"Oh come, come, come,"
Said the sardine's mum,
"It's only a tin full of people."
