Easy Super Yummy Focaccia Bread

I wanted to make grilled veggie sandwiches for dinner the other night but discovered that I didn't have any rolls, just sandwich bread. So I went to google and asked for an easy focaccia bread recipe and found this http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/easy-focaccia/detail.aspx. It turned out better than I expected! Used some of our fresh rosemary. It was fun to see the yeast reacting with the other ingredients. So easy and neat to see it turn to bread by just stirring a little. Then pounded it out to make it smooth and coated it in olive oil. Isaac enjoyed the left over flour on the counter. And Dorito enjoyed Isaac making a mess. Then let it rise, topped it with rosemary and parm, and cooked it.

The Naked Chef

We've been making a bounty of Cinnamon Sugar Bread for my freezer meals club. So much so that every morning Isaac wants to make a loaf a bread. He's been a great help, but also wants to try every ingredient before it goes it. For some reason he thinks flour is yummy.

Fair Fun Part 2

Here's David's favorite chicken.

I'm not sure how much he likes roller coasters. He looks miserable on these rides, but he wanted to continue trying them out. He saw these fishing ponds and thought the were the greatest things. He didn't even care that you won a prize, he just wanted to keep fishing.

He was terrified of this ride.

The carrier is great for teething babies.

So much fun that Nolan passed out.
