In my kitchen tonight

This is what my kitchen looked like tonight. Both my kids are scared of the blender = noise canceling headphones. Joe says we are raising wusses. The headphones have to come out when I am vacuuming too.

Love how the headphone look like they are smashing his head. At least he isn't screaming in terror.

We were cooking up one of my favorite "Joe isn't coming home for dinner meals." Pumpkin protein pancakes (http://dashingdish.com/recipe/pumpkin-spice-protein-pancakes/) and smoothies.  The texture on the inside of the pancakes is kinda pumpkin pie-ish and super yummy without being too sweet which is awesome. Maggie and I are both big fans. Maggie really loves helping me cook these days.

We also made chunky crayons with all the tiny crayon stubs that have been hanging out at our house and driving me crazy for awhile now.

The only good thing about Joe being out of town is that I don't worry about the house being a complete disaster when he gets home. Also, apparently I update my blog more often.

I'm excited to get creative with the crayons with Maggie tomorrow. She loved making them.
