My Very First Fridays Feast

The Pea's kindergarten teacher tells her pupils they should try new foods at least once a year. Today I'm going to try something new too, namely Friday's Feast.

Appetizer
List 3 emotions you experienced this week.
Stress (trying to arrive at my daughter's class picnic on time), happiness (when I saw that the kids and parents loved the dessert I baked ), and embarrassment (when I realized my son had left berry stains on my skirt and peanut butter stains on my hair).

Soup
Name a car you’d love to have.
I covet the BMW 550i because it's the ultimate driving machine. But since I'm a mom of 3, the practical choice would be the Toyota Sienna Hybrid -- but unfortunately they don't sell them here yet in the US.

Salad
Describe your typical morning routine.
6:30 - 3Po comes running into our bed to snuggle and wakes us up.
7:10 - I drag myself out of bed
7:15 - I drag The Pea out of bed, help her dress up and make her bed
7:25 - The Pea and I go downstairs for breakfast. While she eats, I make up lunchboxes for everyone.
7:45 - I gently remind The Pea that it's time to brush her teeth. While she brushes her teeth, I get breakfast for 3Po and Jammy.
8:00 - I hurry The Pea out the door to walk to school.
8:25 - I arrive back home and catch my breath.


Main Course
Have you ever emailed someone famous? If so, who, and what did you say to them? Did they reply?
I wrote an open letter to Elizabeth Edwards at SV Moms Blog. To read what I said, and her gracious response, click here.

Dessert
Do you listen to podcasts? If so, which ones?
Never. Am I dating myself by admitting that I'm not even sure how to get a podcast?

Good feast! Welcome to the table, and thanks for coming by and sharning mine.
I love, love, love you pirates! Too cute. My little one, if she's pleasantly surprised will hunch one shoulder up, like she's a hunch back or something, squint the opposite eye and give one of those just abolutely adorable smiles of hers that I think I need a patent on, it's so cute. Of course, she's only almost 2, so she has no clue about pirates. But if I tried real hard I bet I could hear that pirate song in the background.
And aren't twins wonderful? I agree, 5 is the perfect number for a family (we don't even really have to deal with the whole middle child thing! HA!).
