Sabrina would like to know if you can tell what color sucker she received after sitting still for her hair cut yesterday? (The answer is blue…she teeth and lips were very blue but it didn’t completely translate to film.)

And #2 becomes Dora’s latest disciple. (She is standing in front of the TV here watching Dora.)

I ordered some super cheap dress up items for the girls last week.  (From here. Wings for $1.50, tutus for $2, pirate hats for $1.75)  They arrived today.  Sabrina was in heaven.  Tessa was somewhat dubious.

Where was this fun stuff when we were kids?

I haven’t contributed to Mouthwatering Mondays in awhile…and I’m not sure that this dish would qualify as mouthwatering.  It certainly isn’t pretty.  But it was good and had some good for you things in there so I thought I would share.   And it is less of a recipe and more of an idea.

2 cooked chicken breasts, shredded

1/2 cup white, 1/2 cup red quinoa (measurement prior to cooking…cook according to package directions)

1 box frozen, chopped spinach defrosted and excess water squeezed out

1 small bag frozen corn, cooked

Sliced carrots, lightly steamed (not pictured because I forgot them)

Terryaki-ish sauce (I used light soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, chicken broth, black pepper, and corn corn starch – cook until thickened)

Throw it all together and you have a pretty nutritious dinner that your children will turn their noses up at if they are anything like mine.  If you aren’t familiar with quinoa, click here or here for more information.
