But feeding animal cookies to kids is just fine!
Early this summer, we spent a day at the zoo with my mom, step-dad, youngest sister and her boyfriend. We came back to our house for a cook-out, and at some point, mom handed Alex a bag filled with these adorable cookies she'd made for him. There were owls and penguins, seals, walruses...and possibly one or two more.
My mom's fantastic sugar cookies, made to look like animal faces.
How cute is that?
We put the majority of the cookies in the freezer, and this is the last one...Mom? Care to re-stock?

- Triumph
I don't know what, exactly, has gotten into Alex. I'm not sure I care, either...he's been on a 'taste-new-foods' jag the past couple of weeks. It's, well, it's wonderful. That day when you sit down at the dining table, and...
- Multiple Choice Made Easier
Matt was in Philly this week, for business, which meant I was a true full-time parent. One way to keep Alex occupied is by getting him to 'help' in the kitchen. A recipe I'd been meaning to make with him, Multiple Choice Cookies, from Joanne...
