Cookies, Grissini and Friends

The weekly play date that moms organised for Sunshine and his friends, which DH calls mom's gossip date, started again yesterday after a rather longish break. We had to take a break because of Ms Positive's loss. Since it was after a while and it was going to be a full house, I decided to do some baking. I made some oatmeal cookies adapted from, Joy of Baking recipe. I replaced the egg with a pureed pear and some milk to make it into a paste and the all purpose flour was replaced by whole wheat flour, except for a couple for tablespoons.

I also baked some whole wheat grissinis since everyone in the family seem to be addicted to them at the moment and has been munching on the store bought ones. I hope I can convince them to switch to the home baked ones instead.

It was so much fun to have all the kids running around in our apartment although I wished we had a bigger place with a garden so that they have more place to play their messy games. I generally don't stop Sunshine from messing up the living room since his grandparents are using his room at the moment.

Ms Positive and her family joined us for dinner later and it was a fun afternoon and evening. I went to bed feeling happy although I was tired.
