A day of baking

Yesterday, I was in the mood to bake. I know it's the middle of summer. And I know that it is hotter then blazes.

But you see, with Nathan being sick, I am cooped up in the house. And since you can only vacuum the floors so many times, I turned to baking.

( On the vacuuming note.....if you would see Emma's clothes after she has been crawling around the floor, maybe I should vacuum the floors a little more. That darn dog hair. )

First up was the chocolate chip zucchini bread that I talked about before.

IT WAS AMAZING!!

With an abundance of zucchini from my garden what better thing to do with all this zucchini??

The kids have almost devoured the 1st loaf.

My friend Liz talked about a blueberry pie that she made a while ago. I thought it sounded interesting and thought I would give it a try.

Boy am I ever glad I did. It might be my new favorite pie. And it is Jeremy approved.

While cleaning up this mess........


Nathan did this..........

 I did not yell. But I did tell him that I think he should be buying me a new set for HIS birthday. Especially since he broke a plate a week or so ago. AARRGGHH. 

And it was one of my favorite colors.




EDIT****************** I just read this over again and it made it sound like Nathan cleaned up the mess. He didn't. :) I did, he just broke the bowl. :(****************************

Emma Girl woke up from her nap and happily sat in her chair till I got done.

Well.....

almost.

Daddy kept her entertained while I cleaned up.

Way to go Daddy!!!!
