Mardi Gras & the Soccer Quiz




I strongly believe there are many things you can learn about your children ~ and maybe yourself?? ~ by assessing:
What part of a soccer game means the most to me?

Let me show you an example of what I mean ........

His favourite part of the game.




Her favourite part of the game.



I fear I'm with the wee girl ~ sigh.
Seems like a nice segue into talking about Fat Tuesday. hahaha


HAPPY MARDI GRAS!!!


We're going to have pancakes for supper because I totally gapped it this morning and we had banana bread.
Do you observe Lent?
Give anything up?
I never have before, but I think it would be a very good exercise in discipline for myself.

Well I'm off to work on some invites for a boy who's turning 5 very soon.
He's pretty sure that when that magic number rolls around he'll be allowed to stay home by himself while I take his sister to preschool.
Life's realities are harsh sometimes.

If you do take part in Lent and you want to share ~ what are you giving up this year or what have you done in the past?
Also while I've gotcha ~ what's your fave pancake style?
Big and fluffy or thin and crepe-ish??

I like mine medium fluffiness with blueberries on top, not cooked in, and lots of butter and syrup.
I went to a brunch a month or so ago that had crepes with pears poached in ice wine.....umm yeah.....Fat Tuesday indeed!
