BR Stuff

Bobby Bramble Loses his Brain by David Keane was full of BRs and HILARIOUS to a four year old.

Activities

Braid



He learned how to braid really well! You know, bring the outside clump in the middle. We added some beads for fun.

Bracelet

I bought Fruit Loops. This was HUGE. In our house we purchase Cheerios, Kix, Chex, and for when your feeling a little outrageous, Life. So the Fruit Loops were a great big giant deal.

I measured a piece of yarn that fit around Tal's wrist and he strung it with Fruit Loops. I envisioned him leaving it intact until Daddy got home to take a picture of it. It didn't last more than 15 minutes.

Breadsticks

Here is my favorite recipe.

1.5 c warm water
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp yeast
3-4 c flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 cube butter
garlic salt
parmesan cheese

Dissolve yeast in water and sugar. Add flour and salt. Mix and knead 5-6 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes. Melt butter. Pour half of melted butter in cookie sheet. Spread around until entire sheet is covered. Roll out dough until covering most of the pan, and a uniform thickness. Pour remaining butter over the top of rolled dough. Sprinkle very generous amounts of garlic salt and Parmesan cheese. Let rise 15-20 minutes. Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes.

Treasure hunt: broccoli, broom, bread, brother. The treat was brown licorice.
