Ever Wonder
Posted Aug 1st 2007by Ebenezer
what to do with those left over noodles you don’t use in your spaghetti? Tonight, our left over noodles were fettucine and Carter had a blast with them. After dinner, I put the leftover noodles in a big bowl and put just a touch of oil in with them so they wouldn’t be sticky. He had fun putting his hands in them and playing. Then I thought it would be fun to add some color so I gave him a box of jello mix and he poured it in and stirred it all up with his hands. Then he wanted me to taste it. Our rule at dinner is that he has to taste everything but doesn’t have to eat it if he doesn’t like it. I had to follow my own rule. And I spit it out just like he normally does. Before it was all over he added some of his milk and then we added sprinkles to the whole concoction. I finally noticed he kept giving his sister noodles and she seemed to think they were quite tastey. It was one big sticky mess but the kids had a ball. And I got the dishes done.

I am so going to link to you on this idea! Thanks a bunch – I’ll publish it Friday on my “job” blog (wonderbrains).
