We haven’t forgotten about you. It’s just that this past week has been quite a whirlwind. Grampa left, and Lee came, leaving only a two day window that we filled with Top Chef Day and Board Game Day. After the “Breakfast in Bed” Quickfire, the girls each got $30 to spend at Whole Foods to create a dinner inspired by a summer destination (Bassie got Overnight Camp, Dina had Hawaii). In the end, Dina’s unifying use of Macadamia nuts won the day, but Bassie’s iconic mashed potatoes will be featured in a future Top Chef cookbook.
On Board Game Day, Dina threw Rachel under the bus when she quit Monopoly, giving all her properties to Bassie. Rachel’s superior reflexes and spatial skills won the day in Make or Break (small victories), and Dina learned some excellent SET strategies (such as the “Sniff & SET”).
With Lee here, it was Science Day for two days. We made silly putty, cracked geodes, and looked directly into the sun (w/special glasses, silly!)
This week is off to a lazy start w/Pool and Patio Day, but Scavenger Hunt Day is tomorrow, and I’ll have the girls running all over town.
