Day Out

Mamau took Jack to a PCC cooking class today.   It was a tea party theme.  They made cinnamon twists, egg salad sandwiches, veggie sandwiches and fresh fruit salad with yogurt and poppy seeds.  I love that PCC  (an organic grocery store here) makes unique foods with kids in their classes.  Jack apparently had capers on his sandwich (ok,  he put a caper on it, but that is pretty cool!)

Mamau has taken Owen to a few of these already and Jack was excited to have his turn. Whenever we go to a PCC market, Jack says, “This is the place that Mamau takes Owen to classes!”

While Owen and I waited we drove over to Barnes and Noble and read books in the store.  I found a really awesome French/English kids’ book which Owen thought was not really all that awesome.  Owen found a Batman “where’s Waldo” type book that he thought was the best.  I do not think superheroes are the best.  It was really hard to not dismiss the book out of hand (especially as both monkeys are having nightmares after seeing Eric play a video game of Batman)  But the book was pretty harmless, and I bought it for Owen in the end.  (yuck)

Owen was overjoyed that he was able to get a book, AND hot chocolate (brimming with whipped cream) AND a huge brownie.  IMAG0525IMAG0526 (1)It was really fun to just hang out with Owen.  The hour and a half flew by, and we were not ready to go back and get Jack when his class was over.
