"oooooooooo"

As many parents do, we usually cut Asher's food into bite-size pieces. For the past few weeks, however, Asher has insisted on having his food un-cut and as-is. To get his point across, he simply says, "ooooooooooo!" (like "boo" without the 'b' and about 10 seconds long). That's how Asher says "big".

Yes, this is Asher taking a bite out of Tilamook's Extra Sharp Cheddar. (The balloon is complements of Trader Joe's)

Asher had pasta and a cucumber for lunch yesterday. "Ooooooooo!" is how he wanted it.

Dinner time is a good time

Julianne always makes amazing meals, but somehow, these past few nights have been especially tasty. Just to name a few: baked white fish with herbs from garden, butter/lemon sauce, asparagus, pototaos; steak tacos with pico de gallo; pork dumplings; and more. These dishes were all so good-- if there weren't already so many great dishes at our house, I would say that this weeks menu should become our weekly menu. At any rate, I'll definitely be requesting these meals again.

I often tell Julianne that she should post an occasional picture of a certain dish and perhaps an accompanying recipe, but she always declines. I think I just may start doing it for her!
