Adventures in Food

So we are all back in school and into the routine of being in school.  Each day, we get up early, get everyone dressed and fed.  Daddy heads out before the kids are up.  Mommy heads out after Grammy gets to the house.  Abram and Katie head to school.  Followed by lunch, naps, then time for Mommy to pick up the kids.  Go home fix dinner and get everything ready for the next day.  Followed by bedtime and then we start it all over again.  The days can get kind of montoneous, so to spice things up we are trying some new food ideas.  The latest excitement was homemade pasta.  The kids were so excited to help in this adventure. 

 Abram was great at scooping out the flour, while Katie stirred up the dough.
 As Mommy cut apart the noodles the kids hung them up to dry.  They loved seeing how long they could get the noodle and keep it together.  Notice Katie had to have a wardrobe change...not really sure why, just seems to be what she does now a days!
 After all the noodles were cut and hung up, we had to get them in the pot of water.
Then we added some of our homemade pasta sauce and waaa-laaaa a wonderful meal from scratch.  You can't tell from the picture but the kids ate all of their noodles and asked for seconds!  I think our next food adventure will be sushi?
