Infant Play
He's a smart kid. He knows those crayons are for writing.
And a new one of our own - straw basket.
Poke them through the holes, pull them out, pile them in the middle, toss them around the room.
It's all fun!

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
Thursday was a chilly, windy day - the kind of day that begs for cookies to be made. I was craving No Bake cookies, but we didn't have any Quick Oats in the pantry. So I went on an Internet hunt for something with peanut butter, chocolate and oatmeal. I found the most remarkable cookie on one of my favorite blogs, Brown Eyed Baker.
The only variation between our cookie and the original is that we used mini-chocolate chips, which happened because that is all we had on hand, but it turned out to be fantastic. I am certain this is our new favorite cookie. It's a simple but perfect combination - the peanut butter is subtle, the oatmeal adds a crunch and the mini-chocolate chips perfectly distributed chocolatey-ness throughout the cookie.
