A Visit to the Lutz Chidren's Museum

Clarissa has frequently been asking to go to a children's museum lately, and she finally got her wish over Memorial Day weekend. The museum theme was a town from time past, with lots of hands-on play opportunities. There was also a selection of critters, including fish and a Flemish Giant rabbit. After our museum visit, we found maple bacon flavored potato chips at Aldi. Between the chips and the museum, everyone found something they liked. 😊

The Foods of August 2015

Our food adventures began with this discovery:
Then came Grandfather's "crazy cookies," made with corn chips in a peanut butter glaze:
The trip to Indiana included a stop at Fazoli's:
We also got some yummy pizza during that vacation:
Back at home, we made crazy cookies on our own. When we ran out of corn chips, we put the glaze on some Cheerios. It tasted just like honey nut Cheerios.
Mom experimented with chocolate pudding from scratch:
We also made Jello jigglers, both Minion shaped and regular:

Our most exotic food adventure was trying candies that Dad brought back from his trip to Sweden:
