Splish Splash


One of K's kindy teachers is English. Upon hearing K carolling his delight that he had home made gingerbread in his lunchbox she asked for the recipe. K instantly said that he would make her some. Lol. Anyway my swedish gingerbread recipe needs two days to sit in the fridge so dashed home and mixed up a batch. There are swedish gingerbread recipes that call for butter and cream - not mine. Anyway 2 days had passed and we were all up early thanks to "Fang" Seal. I whipped the gingerbread out, K cut the stars and we popped it into the oven. Shortly afterwards K grabbed his crotch and screamed "Poo! POO!" In the course of dashing upstairs and partially averting disaster - another occurred.... I burnt the gingerbread. Luckily we were up at such an ungodly hour that we could get another batch rolled out, cut intp star and train shapes and baked... to perfection. The weather has been pretty good this week too, lovely and sunny. K has started requesting sunblock and we walk as much as possible :) After all, feet are cheaper than petrol! On friday we went to the pools with Kym and Isabelle. K and C ADORED the pools and only tried to drown themselves several times apiece. It did remind me why I don't take 2 small boys swimming when neither can swim. Afterwards we had a picnic behind the falls restauarant and then headed back to the train station. We had some time to wait so I showed Isabelle the Zen garden by the train station. She liked it so much she came back on the weekend with Pascal :)
