Creativity and some veggies

Creative should have been Tosha's middle name. He is content when he creates something. I encourage and praise him, hoping that this feeds and grows his gift. Maybe his creations are just special to me, because I am his mother, but maybe they are little sprouts of something great to come:)



This is Sharkoctopus - they were supposed to create a monster at school. Antosha got his idea from a movie cover he saw at a store a while ago.



In this one Tosha packaged up some rocks and a couple pennies into a paper tower, colored it brown (because he ran out of brown construction paper) and said that everyone is going to think that he stole some money from the bank:) Don't know where he got this idea from...




This is our cooperative bowling project. We made the ball from rice and balloons.

Now for some recipes...
I made some great crunchy baked veggie fries from zucchini and asparagus with marinara sauce. I got the recipe from here and changed it up a bit.
I used Panko bread crumbs, used a whole egg instead of an egg white, and used Parmesan instead of Pecorino Romano. I also just used some already made Marinara that I had on hand. My crumbs and cheese mixture didn't stick as well as I wanted it to stick to the veggies, and mine don't look as pretty as I wanted them to look, but they tasted very good.



I would like to end on a sweet note...very sweet one, I might add:)
