Pretzels

Last night, Mila and I read, Walter The Baker, by Eric Carle. Which, of course, lead to making homemade pretzels today! 

(Note Mila's apron she made from scrap fabric, yarn and a bikini top. Ha!)

Hunter had to get in on the fun!

Andrew just had fun with the dough.

Ta-da! Finished product. Yum.

We also learned that one of the theories behind they way a pretzel is shaped. They are shaped like that because they represent a child praying. The Monks, (Seventh Century France) would reward children with them.

Tyler had football practice today. Nathan has been doing yard projects with Grandma. Hunter...has been Hunter and has been on the move allllll day.  Mila is a never ending chain of ideas...lol. Andrew has been riding his bike and Kyle has been keeping mama on her toes.

Tomorrow Hunter has a homeschool science class at the Tacoma Nature Center. Fun!
