Yesterday: I took RJ to the Whole Foods market for a playgroup activity. She made bread, took a tour of the store while sampling all of the yummy commodities including- fresh strawberries, oranges, cheese, cinnamon apple chips, a freshly baked chocolate chip cookie and topped it all off with a fresh slice of cheese pizza. While the kids were enjoying their pizza and more fresh fruit, the bakery brought them their baked bread. They also visited the flower department where they each got to pick their own flower. It was a super fun day for both RJ and mom. I was so impressed with the store and the tour (which was all free) that I decided to come back today so that KJ could see the store and enjoy some samples. What I thought would be a fun day with my children turn out to be a nightmare.
Today: Everything was going great, we were all sampling huge fresh strawberries and moseying through the store when I decided to stop at the deli to get us some lunch. I stopped the cart, which KJ had been trying to catch a ride on the side the entire time- I just told her to stop messing with the cart because....it was going to tip over (Hey, I'm just the mom, what do I know?) Well, I turned my back to get a slice of pizza for the girls, and crash the cart tipped over! Anton's car seat fell out and tipped to the side, RJ was in the main part of the cart, luckily she didn't fall out of the cart, but she hit her head. KJ of course was not hurt at all. I hurried and picked the cart up, checked the kids for bumps and made sure that their eyes looked ok. I ended up taking both of them to the doctor to make sure nothing was seriously wrong. So far, so good, I have to keep an eye on both of them for four days to make sure everything is still ok. Wow! What a day.
Pat the bread
Pat it some more
Add raisins (lots of raisins, all in the middle)
Gently fold
Keep folding, all the way over. Excellent!
smush it together
Check to see if raisins are still there
Nice floury face after the sampling
About an hour in the oven, and there you have it. Fresh clump raisin bread. We had it for dinner last night and it was really tasty. Good job Raija :)
Mmmm, clump raisin bread? Sad I missed it. Good to know your kids are ok after their spill. Why is it so hard for kids to obey sometimes? Do they not realize that we are older and wiser? That there's a reason to our "don't's" and "no's"?
