Fresh Cherries

Breakfast: Cinnamon Rolls, Vegetarian Sausage Links, & Fresh Berries.

Morning Snack: Fresh Cherries (pitted), Roasted Almonds, and Dubliner Cheese Cubes.

Lunch: Sunflower Seed Butter and Jam on Whole Wheat Bread. Fresh Strawberries on the Side.

Afternoon Snack: Popcorn!

Dinner: Turkish Spinach and Lentil Soup Leftovers

We had bigger and better plans for dinner, but the Husband was running late so Silly and I finished off the soup from last night. Turns out it's just as wonderful a day later!

Silly came down with something today, so lunch had to be a comfort food she could eat on the couch while watching movies. Hence the SFSB&J Sandwich followed by Popcorn for a snack. Nothing puts the regular chaos in perspective like a sick child. Normally great eaters become very particular and what can you do?

Here's another unsolicited product recommendation for you: A Pitter. We use ours all the time. When you have small children in the house, there is really no easier way to deal with olives and cherries. Cherries are seasonal of course, but we have to pit olives at least once a week. I'd hate to have to sacrifice the quality of olives we buy simply so we can get them pre-pitted. Not that Silly would care! She'd be just as happy to eat sliced black olives out of a can as she would be to sample the olive bar at Whole Foods. She can be more discerning about other foods, but not olives. She likes them all!
