Tremendous Tuesday

We made homemade granola today. I know, I know. How very 70s of us. But it turned out well, in spite of being slightly overcooked, so we'll definitely make that again. I found the recipe the on Boston Mamas site. I attempted to add a button to my blog, so if it's there, you should check it out. They have lots of great recipes and other neat stuff to read about.

We had a play date with some of our best friends. It was great to watch the girls play together. They pretended to be superheroes (thanks, Word Girl) and retire to their secret lair. They actually called it their secret lair. Awesome.

DD also read two books today: another Bob book and a Margaret Wise Brown book called I Like Stars. She had some difficulty, naturally, with bright, as we haven't covered the nifty gh combo, but otherwise did a smashing job. I did, too, if I may say so myself. I didn't ask to be read to or hint about books even once. How could I? I was up to my neck in granola...

Also, we saw a baby rabbit in the yard today. The girls were able to get so close. It really made their day. And mine too. Now if only we can keep the neighbors' cat away.
