The theme for Reese's little preschool group last week was "R for Rainbow". She came home with a darling little kite with rainbow streamers, and rainbow jell-o. She really loved the theme and was even more excited than usual....probably because she's a narcissist and "R" is also for Reese. Either way, she loved the rainbow theme, so we've continued it around here all week.
We have some form of breakfast for dinner once a week. Usually on Wednesdays, since it is easy to fix and I am usually in a hurry to get to the church to help with the Young Women activity on wednesday nights.
I mix it up and cook a variety of things, so we won't get sick of it. It's been about a year of this and we still enjoy it. It has been months since we've had pancakes, so this week, we had eggs, juice, and Rainbow Pancakes!
I've never put food coloring in our pancake/waffle mix before, so I wasn't sure how it would turn out. The girls LOVED it....even though some of them overcooked and our "rainbow" looked a little muddy. Quincy would only eat the PINK pancakes. Her nursery teacher told me on Friday that she also refuses to color during the activity part of the lesson unless she has at least one PINK crayon in her hand. They said she knows all her colors, and is very particular about which color paper she gets when they are doing a craft! News to me! It must be that her BIG SISTER always gets her way at home, and the pink crayons are rarely available to her...maybe she feels the need to be the boss somewhere else. Oh well, at least she gets her way somewhere. Hopefully she isn't a bully about it.
