Baking with Mama

Last week, Mimi and her friend Shane (not Uncle Shane but photographer Shane) came over for lunch. I guess they're writing some story about me and Mama and her stromboli recipe for Bangor Metro magazine. Shane got some fun photos of me and even showed me how to use the camera!

This is me posing as a serious model.

And this is me as my regular goofy self.

Mama and I made two strombolis for lunch -- one with meat in it and one with veggies. I got to help stretch out the dough...

And I even snuck some pieces of it when no one was looking. Don't tell!

I thought the prosciutto was really really stinky. Mama made me put it in the stromboli anyway. What is she...nuts?

They actually turned out to be really yummy -- and I think it was because I was such a good helper. Mama and I make a good team.

A Project With Daddy

The other day Daddy went to Lowes and brought me home this special kit. It says it's for kids 5 and up to build... but I knew better. I was ALL over it!
So after dinner Sunday night, Dada and I set to work on my very own pirate periscope!

First we laid out all the pieces...


... then we started to stick 'em together. Daddy started the nails for me, and then set me loose. Does he look scared to you?


I don't know why he would. I'm an awesome hammerer. See?



I was very patient and even took safety seriously (kinda).


I even let Daddy help a little!


The last thing to go into this project was my absolute favorite part- STICKERS!


I had to try it out, of course, as soon as we were done- and guess what? It works!


CHEESE!


I know I usually give Daddy a hard time, but he really is the best!

Halloweeny!

(To protect the identity of these Trick-or-Treaters... Mama has taken some artistic license)

So last week was so wicked awesome! It was Halloween, of course! As you can see I was a TERRIFYING TIGER! Or as I called myself to some, an 'Iberian Tiger.



BOO!



On Friday I made a special trip to Tammy's, just so I could go Trick-or-Treating with all my friends! It was so much fun!
Who would have thought a tiger could hold a chickens hand (wing?) without taking a nibble?! Must have been that princesses magical powers.



This is my friend Will... he wasn't a very happy hamburger, but he sure was cute!



But I think out of allll my friends, Carley really took the cake for best costume! Can you believe this chick?



I've already been asking Mumma if we can go Trick-or-Treating again this Saturday. She had the nerve to tell me that it only happens ONCE a year!
What a stinker.
