Kid-Friendly Fried Rice




My kids don’t usually like “mixed foods”, which means I usually have to keep their foods very segregated.  But this fried rice dish went over really well.  It may have been how I included them in the process . . . or the fact that I added a shit-ton of bacon and butter.


Butter Bacon Edamame Fried Rice Recipe
2 Tablespoons Butter
2 Slices Thick Bacon
2 Garlic Cloves Chopped
5 Cups Rice
2 Eggs Beaten
1 Cup Broccoli & Carrot Chopped
1 Cup Edamame Shelled
3 Green Onions Chopped
2 Tablespoons Tamari (Soy Sauce)
Everything But The Bagel (TJs) Seasoning


Sauté the bacon in butter until it starts to brown (about 5 minutes)

Add chopped garlic and cook until fragrant (less than 30 seconds)

Add rice and stir-fry until heated and coated in oil (less than 5 minutes)

Drizzle beaten eggs evenly over the rice and mix until coated (less than 2 minutes)

Add Broccoli, Carrot, and Edamame and stir-fry until evenly mixed (less than 2 minutes)

Add Green Onions, Tamari, and stir-fry until evenly coated (less than 2 minutes)

Sprinkle Everything But The Bagel Seasoning over the mixture to taste.

Sticker Club Letter Template for PARENTS! DADS! GUARDIANS! & SIBLINGS!

Recently my girls have gotten several "Sticker Club" invites, which I have been really excited for.  I really love sending out mail, and I love seeing how excited my girls are to receive something in the mail.  But . . . I became a little disheartened when I saw the form letter that was sent.   "Let my 'MOM' know", I thought this was such an easy fix, that obviously someone else would have made a "gender neutral" Sticker Club Template, but all my searching was in vain.  Apparently, no one else had thought there might be a DAD out there who would be really stoked on stickers and parenting.   But there totally is a DAD who is INTO STICKERS & PARENTING!!!!!  Sticker Dads UNITE!!! If you are like me, then I am happy to tell you that there is a Sticker Club Letter Template for all the STICKER PARENTS out there: Gender Neutral Sticker Club Template Letter     For STICKER DADS:  Sticker Club Dad Template Letter For STICKER GUARDIANS:...

That time the birds built a nest in front of our kitchen window

One day while I was teleworking in the basement, Mallory excitedly screamed "I can't believe it!"    Some birds had made a nest and were raising chicks in the tree in front of our kitchen window.  We watched them grow over a few weeks until they were finally adventurous enough to hop out of the nest.   Here is one perched on a different tree close to the nest.

DADS SEW: unicorn horn socks

DADS SEW: Ejler has been asking me to repair these unicorn socks for a while.  I finally figured out a way to do it.  1. scrap material (old chino pants) 2. trace and cut out circle with tab for attachment (add random green leaves from table) 3. cut slit in the circle and tightly twist into horn 4. sew up the seam, and from the top - sew around the horn making alternating stitches outside and inside the horn. 5. use the tab for attachment
