Stuff I like right now

These books are making my kids at least 10% smarter and they make school time easy for me since they give me some kind of structure. You can buy them on Amazon but I've also found them at Target and Costco.

We recently discovered this peanut sauce when I had a pretty mean craving for an oriental chicken salad. So far I've marinated chicken in it, I've used it for a stir fry sauce and I've added a little mayo to it for raw vegetable dip. So so so good!
I've loved freezer paper for a while but recently I've been wanting to add some little accents to some of my plain t-shirts, like a flower or a bird or something. To try out my new paints I made this train shirt for Jack this morning. From start to finish this project took about 3 hours. Including drying time. I love freezer paper!

We love love love WordGirl around here. There aren't that many kids shows that I enjoy watching a million times but I could watch WordGirl all day. It's funny, it's interesting and I don't mind hearing Jack walk around saying things like "that's pretty redundant" or "Lottie, you are disappointing me right now."

Lastly, I know I already said this but I love Charlie and I love bathtime.

I'll have to try that peanut sauce - it sounds really good right now. Also, I've done freezer paper shirts too and I love it. It makes a plain ol' tshirt much cooler.

I really love your blog...I probably check it out a couple times a week just to make sure I don't miss out on the newest pic's of the kids. LOVE AUNT BRENDA

I too love peanut sauce. I discovered it because of my Dad and his love for Thai food. If you go to a Thai restaurant order peanut sauce and sticky rice for your appetizer and it's SO AMAZING. I crave it like crazy! And I'm not even prego. It's seriously so good. You just ball up a little bit of sticky rice and dip it in the sauce and oh man now I want some. So good.
