Halloween: Angry Birds Style
Last year, we decided it would be really fun to dress up thematically for Halloween. At least, I decided that would be fun while the boys would still go for it and Brian would humor me. I've been looking back nostalgically this year since the boys thought it was so fun dressing up as a group that they want to do it again this year just this time Avengers style. This means, however, that being the only girl, I automatically get to be Black Widow with the cat suit as I accompany a miniature Hulk, Captain America and Thor around the neighborhood. I'm somewhat doubtful that would be as cute as last year's white angry bird costume on me!
So many people asked me though how I made last year's costumes that I thought I would share it since it was really easy, and as I usually strive for, really economical.

"Funny" Fish Tacos
As many of my friends and family have heard me bemoan, Mexican food is pretty hard to come by were we live in the South. And by Mexican food, I mean things that actually resemble what I ate when I was in Mexico and when we used to live in Southern California. We've had to explain what a tamale is ("no, you don't eat the corn husk"), fish is actually normal in a taco, and chile rellanos are not smothered in velveeta. We've found a couple good places, but I have been attempting to create healthy versions of some of our favorites.
I cook a lot since it so much cheaper to feed our three ravenous boys healthily. I've been working on healthy and quick recipes that I can easily make in about half an hour since between homework, soccer and bath time with our crew, nights are pretty busy! So last night I came up with a new recipe for healthy fish tacos:
