Caramelized Onion Fiends!!!

So I blogged about making this...

http://whozhungry.blogspot.com/2012/03/perfect-pizzette.html

Which started with making, what I thought was, a HUGE batch of caramelized onions...

I did five VERY LARGE onions...

When I set them out onto the platter to cool...

These two decided it was SUPPER TIME!!!!

 They dug right in!!!

 And kept right on digging so I thought I would just put some on a smaller plate and they could help themselves....

 Well they did help themselves and I reloaded the plate again....

Finally I just said ok...

Snapped a few pics and let them go to town on the BIG platter!

 Here's Miss 'c' double fistin' it!

She could not get them in, chewed and swallowed fast enough! 

Here's Miss 'g2'...YUM!

They ate at least 1/3 of the platter...

I snapped my pics and then walked away!

LOL.....

Yes, we are ALL caramelized onion fans in this house...

But we do have two wee ravenous fiends who would take us all down for just one more bite!

Painted Toast!

The girlz LOVED doing this!

 Use any kind of 'milk'...

 We used Almond milk and...

 ... food colouring!

 'c' kind of stuck to the middle...sogging it out ...

'g2' nibbled as she painted...

I purchased some new paint brushes that will only be used for food purposes.

Once they were done, we popped them into the toaster and waited...

They came out just as bright as when they went in!

They were quickly consumed and we repeated the fun again later when the sibs arrived home from school and they saw the "paint"...

So this 'craft' works for ANY age!

That's always a good thing!

Muffin Munchers...

We made 'Black Bottom Banana Cones' today!

It's just a few chocolate chips tossed into the bottom of a flat bottomed ice cream cone...

then you spoon some banana muffin batter in and bake!

The girlz LOVED them!

Yes, they're still in their pj's...

Some days are like that...

It's part of our every day...

:o)

Two Tutu Cute!!

Mom made us tutus today!

We had heaps of fun!

Thanks Mom!!!

Jiggler-Time!

We did Jigglers today!

DUCKIES!

Lime & Orange mixed!

 Soooo many duckies!

Soooo tasty too!

YUM!

Piano Patooties...

If it gets quiet upstairs...

I know exactly where to find these two...

Stripped down to their dipes and plunking away on the piano downstairs...

It's the simple things you know!

Bathing Suit Babez...

Snapped this one today...

 They were perched on the arm of the couch and I just HAD to capture their tiny frames.

So in their own world and having a terrific time conversing with one another...

Giggles and all!

'g2'...

Loving these impromptu snaps of 'g2'...

the light, the colours, the kid...

So warm, so fun, so sweet!

Today we...

... went for a stroll to Sidney.

 We went to a few 2nd hand shoppes and had a picnic lunch near the water.

It was absolutely loverly!

I snapped this pic of 'c', Gma & 'g2' on their way back to the van.

- - - - -

 Here's one of 'g2' from yesterday...

LOVE this pic of her...

Wish I had seen the OUTHOUSE in the background though...

After I'd changed my angle... I just couldn't capture her smile again...

Maybe I'll have a go at it in PS before I print my pic for scrappin'...

Yes, good idea!

- - - - -

And here's Miss 'c'...

...remember how grumpy she was yesterday?

[Getting all 'horizontal' for the ALL in pic?]

Even the swing didn't help her find her "cheese".

Sad li'l lass...

We'll be headed back home tomorrow to check out the new flooring...

Scootin'...

Gpa has a scooter...

Kiddos LOVE to scoot!

 This was 'z's first time scootin' by herself!

- - - - -

 'c' was brave enough to go on with 's'...

 ...or perhaps the console just look tasty.....

- - - - -

Miss 'g2' was not interested in scootin'...

She just wanted to run amok in the fields some more...

Slidin' on down!

'g2' discovered her LOVE of sliding today!

You can see she's a bit apprehensive at first...

[Love how her wee tongue is set just so...]

That's Gma helping her at the top...thank you Gma!

I took my "catcher's" position at the bottom...

[plus it's the best spot for taking pictures!]

 But she caught on to this whole thing BEFORE she hits the bottom!

 Just look at that gleeful, twisted smile!

 Oh I think she likes it! She likes it A LOT!!!

 Check out that electrified hair!

 She was SUPER charged by the time she got to the bottom!

I made sure I let her hop OFF the slide onto the ground before I touched her...

Although a couple times I forgot!

We spent a ton of time at the slide today!

Both girlz sliding, climbing & running to start it all over again!

They both LOVED it!

'c's pics to follow...

Park Pics...

We are at the Grandparents' house for a few days while our flooring gets done...

So we took the kiddos over to the park...

I'm trying to brush off the cobwebs of the few little things I thought I once knew about 'making' pictures...

Here are a few of my faves...

Let's start with Miss 'z'...

 When I walked into the park and saw this new piece of equipment...

I knew EXACTLY what I wanted to do with it!

 Loooove the schwoopy schwirl and how 'z' is right in the heart of it!

And this one of her oh so happy, laughy, smiley, joyful giggly self emerging ...

Terrific colour combo too!

Her red shirt and that periwinkley purple of the schwirl!!!

I do believe I have the PERFECT pp to match!

Can't wait to scrap these pics!

- - - - -

'S's favorite colour is ORANGE...

He was thrilled when he saw this new piece of equipment on the playground!

 He enjoyed climbing ALL over it...

- - - - -

 The 'babez' were RUNNING  all over the place!

The area now has a fence surrounding it so it was the best place for them to run amok!

And they just went for it!

 After a while...

'c' ended up on a swing with Gma...

 But 'g2' just kept right on truckin'!!!

I was getting dizzy watching her burn up lap after lap after lap around the playground and fields! 

That girl wore me out and I wasn't even running!

- - - - -

Well, that's enough pics for now.

Tomorrow I'll post several more...

The ones from the slides are HILARIOUS!

Gotta love static electricity combined with fine, floaty toddler hair!

;o)

Don't forget...

So I made a batch of these Chocolate Diablo Cookies today...

 See this post for the recipe...

http://whozhungry.blogspot.com/2011/06/chocolate-diablo-cookies.html

I wasn't sure if the wee ones would like them...

 Miss 'C' LOVED them!

 So did Miss 'g2' !

They munched away...

Enjoying their slurps of milk as needed...

 But the thing that really warmed my heart....

[Remember these are Dark Chocolate & Chili cookies...?]

Seeing 'g2' SHARE her beloved cookie with her beloved big sis!

It doesn't get much sweeter than that!
