When we took these photos final week, we had a opposite story to tell you. A story about autumn as well as potatoes. But things changed.
It all started final Friday when J. was complaining about a stomach ache. Then, upon Saturday, this stomach ache turned in to full blown nasty virus that had all of us tortuous over with pain. Even bad M. who is not quite a single year yet, could not keep anything down. Needless to say it was a severe weekend.
Saturday, we could hardly move, though we was a least influenced of a 4 so we somehow managed to have some soup. Soup was a usually thing we could design myself eating. Not this exact one, as we had done as well as photographed this a couple of days earlier, though a second batch.
Celery root, sunchokes, potatoes, leeks, thyme, coconut milk... Creamy as well as light soup that takes no time to have to get us going. It seemed to be a usually thing that really helped.
Sunday afternoon, C. as well as we managed to take alternating naps. we woke up after my dual hour siesta revitalized. Nothing some nap cannot help, no?.
I woke up to an anxious child in a ninja dress ready to go pretence or treating. "is it time yet?", he asked. we got up, took a shower, got dressed as well as miraculously felt like a brand new person.
We grabbed some of these leftover pistachio, oat as well as chocolate shortbreads, which we had been testing a week prior to as well as headed to o! ur frien ds' residence where it as all happening. Cookies went down great, though kids were seeking for their finished candy fix.
Oh how we love Halloween.
