Yeah. Totally my running theme for Pinterest projects this week.
Yummies:
Oven Baked Meatball Subs - Okay, these are totally easy. Meatballs, sauce, sub bread, cheese. Oven until cheese melts. HOW CAN YOU MESS THEM UP? Apparently, you can. Or at least I can. Because I did. They were edible and all, I suppose, but the bottom of the bread was soggy. And, as my friend Brittney said, there's nothing worse than a soggy bottom. I didn't have much success with meatball sub casserole either. So I'm thinking I'm out of the meatball sub business.
Eggplant Parmigiana - This is not a food I grew up eating. But I tried eggplant parmigana at one point and really liked it. Since making this dish, I decided I must've been really drunk when I tried it. Ya'll. NOT GOOD. NOT GOOD AT ALL. I was so disappointed because I wanted to love it. Not only that, but I tried to trick Kyan into eating it (by telling him it was chicken) and ended up with a four-year-old who was pretty furious with me. And I can't say I blame him . . .
Kid Stuff:
Bouncy Balls - The reason - pretty much the ONLIEST reason - I searched high and low (Walmart and Target both, ya'll) for Borax was to make these stupid balls. The first time we went to make them I realized I was out of corn starch so we made Gak instead and guess what? I'm still finding Gak in places you don't wanna find Gak. Ugh. I finally managed to have all needed ingredients at the same time so Kyan and I set out to make these earlier this week. I'll let the picture do the talking:
THAT is a handfull of GOOP.
In the interest of full disclosure I had one friend that they worked fine for and another that found them to be a little dry. I have no idea what happened to mine! Totally NAILED IT though!
