Birds and Food

One Saturday morning, Nichole, Lucky, and I got out in the cold to go birding with Utah County Birders at the Provo River Delta. It's open now. Woohoo. Jeremy and I loved going there to celebrate our anniversary back in May so I've been excited to take the kids.

It was certainly cold but fun to see the birds and spend time with those two. I love nature.

That evening we made homemade Panda Express food for National Fast Food Day, November 16. Sweetfire Chicken, white rice, and chow mein. Mmmmmm.

 

November 17 was Homemade Bread Day. I made bread with the intention of letting us tear into one loaf and slicing the rest. Jet had other ideas apparently. Ha Ha. I did get three sliced loaves out of it, though.

 

November 19 was International Men's Day, Have a Bad Day Day, and Carbonated Beverage with Caffeine Day. Jeremy was tired enough at work that he had to celebrate. Poor guy.

Sometimes Dinnertime is... Fun?

I made Panda Express Kung Pao Chicken and noticed the chili peppers looked like slugs as they cooked. 

Of course since it had chili peppers in it, it was spicy.

Mom: There's a reason it's called kung pow.

 

Some dinosaurs came to dinner as they often do.

At one point, Jet started flinging rice all over. Jr. helped clean it up.

Jr.: The spinosaurus is cleaning up. Can you clean up like the spinosaurus?

The stegosaurus started cleaning up.

Jr.: See. This is why the spinosaurus is a carnivore. It's much less messy.

Hot Sauce Day 2022

January 22 in 2022 was Hot Sauce Day. I made Sweetfire Chicken using the Panda Express Sweet Chili Sauce Jeremy got me. He loves me. 

I loved the food. Both Jeremy and Nichole picked out the pineapple but did not feel the leftover pineapple flavor was overbearing so they liked it. Jet loved it, too. Jr. said he liked it. The other boys refused to even try it. Sigh.
