I was looking for a low-fat dessert, and found angel food cake.  But it only uses egg whites, and I don't want to waste 9 egg yolks, so I make noodles.  If all the fat is in the yolk, and I end up eating the noodles, then I end up eating all the fat anyway.  Oh well, the cake is worth it!

We keep getting rain and sun.  These drops were on a grape leaf.  I liked the sun reflecting on so many water droplets.

I got a different kind of cabbage this year.  It's leaves are interesting to look at.

I had bought some rafts for the kids last year on clearance.  Today they got them blown up and were floating around in the pool

Some storms rolled through today.  I managed to get one picture of some lightning.

We picked some strawberries today.  This is some plastic wrap with water drops over the berries.

Child #2 got braces on this week.  His teeth grew in about the same as my oldest, and the youngest will probably follow suit.  My husband didn't need braces, and my teeth weren't as crooked as the kids.  I don't know where they inherited such teeth, but all three got that gene!

The potato plants were killed by a late heavy frost, but the seeds underground were still good and they sprouted right back up.  They seem to be growing a few inches every day now.

Today was my younger son's last day at the elementary school.  Next year he'll be at the middle school.  They had a fun day, ending with a tug-o-war.  This was the boys verses the girls (although the girls got a little help from some parents to secure a victory!).

Today was my daughter's grade's breakfast at school.  This was the third and last time I get to volunteer for that (I was pregnant with her the first time I did).  There were a lot of parents there this year.

My daughter wanted to go shopping at Target and wrote us a note.  I asked her what 'cheap' meant, and she answered that it is something that costs a lot of money.  Which explains the contents of this note.
