So here's one to file away under "kids say the darndest things":
On Monday night after work, the usual pandemonium ensued. The girls ran around and played. J and I ran around trying to get dinner going as well as clean up a little (which is essentially a pipe dream because outside of a few hour window after our cleaning lady comes, the house is a constant victim of hurricanes Tessa and Alice).
So once we had things under control, J was in the living room playing with the gals and I went in and said, "Alice, do you want to come set the table?"
Usually, A is all over this, because she loves being a helper. But that night she said, "I would love to, but I can't because I'm busy."
**insert record scratch here** I'm sorry, what?! My first inclination was to laugh. Not because it's ok for a 3 year old to say no to me when I ask her to do something. I think it's more because she didn't have one single ounce of attitude in her response. It was very friendly, pleasant, matter-of-fact and conversational.
I also made the mistake of asking her if she wanted to help instead of telling her it was time for her to help. It makes sense that she was assume she has a choice based on my phrasing.
Of course I nicely told her that she had to come set the table and she ended up setting it without issue. But sometimes my mind is boggled by the things she says, and more specifically the way she says them. It serves as a reminder that we made a little person. This fact still blows my mind, three years later!
Have you guys noticed that Trader Joe's Everything but the Bagel Sesame Seasoning Blend
I was thinking about how I'd love to incorporate the Everything Seasoning in a way that I can enjoy it with my hummus. And since pita chips are so darn easy to make, I thought, "why not?"
These are a great throw-together snack option for last minute guests. They come together in a matter of minutes and taste fantastic.
I varied the baking time a little bit so you have the option for an all-around crispier chip or one that's crispy around the edges with a bit of chew left in the middle (that's how I like them!).
