It's a matzah pizza sorta day...


Today was a "matzah pizza" sort of day"... It was cold out.  It was sunny out.  It even rained at one point.  It was sometimes cloudy.  It was often windy.  We did some fun stuff like "decorating" - which I had not let myself do until ALL of the boxes were unpacked.  The kids and I hung pictures, put things on shelves and and continued some wall decaling (is that a word).  We were all very excited about the "wall decaling" - more on that later.  But in the end, it was an ordinary day albeit a day during Passover.  Lots of playing, reading books, trying to run around outside and of course eating our meals.  My big "exciting" thing of the day for the kids: matzah pizza.  An old stand by of Passover moms everywhere: one piece of matzah, jar of sauce, and some mozzarella cheese - 6 minutes in the toaster over and there you have it... matzah pizza.  The idea is great if you are 2.8 years old and it definitely satisfies the "I need to eat something I am starving" moaning stomach of the 41 year mommy keeping Passover (and the 1 yr old watching it all go down from her high chair apparently finds it all hilarious).  So there you have it - a matzah pizza day...  Tomorrow I am thinking it is potatoe pancakes (from the box) and applesauce... whoop whoop!


very excited about this new invention called matzah pizza - he ate 4 bites and then went back to kicking the blow up matzah balls around the kitchen and smashing into Mr Pharaoh calling him Batman...

Vera did not stop giggling all through lunch.  She had avocados, pears, cheese and some bits of the matzah pizza and was just happy!
