These months just seem to fly by now. I can't believe it's already July. There are good things and bad things about July - I'll start with the good - this is the official start of JM's new year and is now a pgy3 (that means post-graduate year 3 - 1 year of internship and has started his second year of residency) With another possible 4 years to go, I'm looking forward to every July - it's one step closer! And the bad is that he had to go back to doing consults for the month of July and August. I can't really tell you what "consults" mean, but all I know is that he never gets home until really late and it sucks. As I type this, it's now 8:36 and he's still not home. Bleh!
Anyway, on to more about July 1st!
I finally tried Pirate's Booty today. I've heard so many people say they love this and I don't know if they've just never sold it anywhere else I lived, but I finally found some. It was really good! Even Jenna loved it! Have you ever tried it?

Later on this afternoon, we had a playgroup at the park. Jenna had 1.5 of a brownie and loved every second of it. She was actually begging for more and if I would have let her, she would have probably ate about 4 of them.
And then later tonight, I made star rice krispies. I let her have the batter after I was finished and it kept her nice and happy for about 30 minutes. Seriously...that long. She was quite the crankypants before - so whatever works, right??
These are the finished product. Some of my stars turned out a bit funkier than others. But oh well...something different, at least, right? I got the idea from this blog. There are tons of other ways you could make them so I'm hoping to make them again (or another type at least) and maybe with practice they'll start to look better. I think they are actually fun and very simple to make - I think I have more fun with something like this, than other things like cakes and brownies....
And on a different note - I'm working on an upcoming giveaway from beddingsets.com - Stay tuned because you won't want to miss out!

Yea for PGY3! Boo for consults!
Brownies? YUM! I think I would be a bit concerned if Jenna didn't like them. And Pirate's Booty, huh? I've never heard of it before...may have to check it out (like I did with Bottlecaps candy this week).
And those star shaped rice krispie treats are SO cute! What a neat idea!
Cute Stars - believe it or not, I've never made rice crispy treats :0
I LOVE Pirate Booty! A friend of mine has a daughter who loves it so I thought I'd get some for Lily to try...she didn't like it but now I am hooked.
Pirate Booty was a food group for Eli when he was little. He loved it, and then I got hooked. It's not the greatest food, but it's not potato chips. LOL I still get the craving for it. I think they sell it here at Food Pyramid. They also sell these things called Veggie Sticks (like potato chips), and those were good. Eli could suck on them and make them mushy, but still a good snack. ~Alex
