From the kitchen: This week Big Monkey cooked omelettes for us. She did a really good job only a few mishaps with egg shell in the batter but that was easily rectified and she commented that this was the best omlette she had ever tasted. Monday: Tomato risotto which turned out especially lovely this time. Must be the homemade stock from Sunday's roast chicken I used. Tuesday: Kartoffelgulasch, childhood comfort, yum. Wednesday: Chicken Stroganoff. Thursday: Little Monkey announced in the morning that he needed, yes needed chips and he also asked for fish so we had fishfingers and chips with carrots and as a desert a lovely chocolate mousse. Friday: cauliflower macaroni, stewed plums with vanilla ice cream as desert.


We've been creating: Big Monkey drew a self portrait trying to keep in mind the proportions of the human body. She still finds it hard to comprehend on how long the arms actually are. Little Monkey created a lovely collage of nature things he glued onto cardstock. I finished my postcards for a swap and also made quite a few layouts and little drawings. Not to forget the all important invitations for Little Monkey's 4th Birthday bash. As we only invite four friends it was easy to make them myself.

Things we did: Big Monkey was looking forward to see her friend for a sleep over she could hardly sleep in excitement on Thursday. Sadly though at 10 at night the little girl missed her Daddy too much and we had to do a late night dash to drop her off. Little Monkey had a little friend over for lunch and waited half an hour at the door worrying he might not come.
The egg thing sounds cool!! We've been learning the names of clouds in science.
