Here is one last photo from the gifts we received from my wife’s friend in Hawaii. I just had to photograph the back of this bag of cookies because the name is so funny. Oh and they were delicious too!

102/365 Aw Nuts

Although I’m allergic to Walnuts I think they are pretty interesting looking. They are pretty gnarly little dudes after all.

98/365 THE bunny visits

The Easter Bunny is amazing and always hides jelly beans around our house for our kids to run around and find/collect. This is amazing because Mr. Bunny used to do the same thing when I was growing up and I remember how much fun it was to try and find where he had hid the jelly beans. It was always a big laugh when we wouldn’t find all the beans and months later come across another one, what a nice, hard, little surprise.

83/365 Noodle

I went to one of our favorite stores to stock up on whole wheat pasta today. Bulk food at Winco is the way to go. Yummy!

62/365 A little bubbly

I love how the bubbles in this drink are only collecting on the straw and not the glass. I guess the glass is too smooth?

38/365 Father & Sons

My son’s Cub Scout pack is having their Blue and Gold Banquet and asked each Father & Son to bake a cake for it. Here is our themed “Leap Into Scouting” cake. It was a lot of fun and from what my boys told me it was very yummy. Shawn made the oragami all by himself and we all baked and decorated the cake. My wife was strictly forbidden from helping.

Here is one extra photo of my boys waiting and watching as the cake batter is mixed.

34/365 Serendipity

Today’s photo is courtesy of my wife, Becky Jeide. Matilda Jane Clothing just released a new clothing line and my wife is one of only two “Trunk Keepers” that sell it in Utah. She gave attendees of her premier show these little treats. The clothing line is called Serendipity, hence the name on the bags. We love how these cloths photograph and how unique they are. Photos of the clothing will come to this blog in time, but take a look here if you want to see the cloths now.

19/365 What diet?

The star of the show today is…. (pause for effect)…. a cupcake! This was my son’s cupcake and I am proud to say that I didn’t have even a bite of it. This cupcake by the way is from Dippidee in American Fork.

5/365 Birthday Wishes

Today we celebrated my oldest sons 9th birthday! It was a fun day for him and I am glad and relieved. I am very proud of Shawn and all that he does and accomplishes and I had hoped to make this day one he would remember.

Here is a photo of Becky lighting the candle on the little cake that she had made from Dippidee in American Fork. Shawn chose a key lime cake with raspberry filling and key lime frosting. It was moist and so delicious.

Day 109 : Colored

Ever wonder why some bottles like extra virgin olive oil are a dark color? It has to do with the oil being sensitive to light and the darker glass helps it last longer. To prolong how long your olive oil stays fresh keep it in you pantry away from heat and light. I think this is interesting and have alway wondered about the dark bottles.

 


Day 106 : Birthday wishes

I’d like to thank everyone for the Birthday wishes on Twitter and on Facebook. It was a great day and here is a photo of the candle a-top the homemade pineapple upside down cake we enjoyed. Thanks goes to my wife also who made this amazing cake for me!

Day 96 : Taste the rainbow

While at the mall my son had to spend the quarter that he found in the park yesterday so he had a little skittles treat. The reason he is so sad can only be because Dad was taking his photo once again, sheesh.
