The reason we live in Arizona has finally arrived. Beautiful weather! Today I enjoyed a lovely afternoon outside with the girls. We had a picnic in the back yard and after raking the ficus tree leaves they also enjoyed playing the mini-pile. Finally – Fabuolus weather and outdoor pic-nic season.

Another thrift discover
I am totally cool if you want to display your variety of baby daddies as a fashion choice – I say wear it and wear it proud mama! But with this little number I snapped a pic of recently at a thrift store there is an extra special level of ewe. This t-shirt was a size 12/14 girls. Not a size small womens but a childs size and part two, it had been worn. I leave it at that.
Zaatar BLT
Last week I posted a make shift Zaatar bread over at the Phoenix New Times Chow Bella Blog called Old herbs get a life. I made a bunch of spread up and covered pita bread with it. Then I turned it into a dinner by using it as my matrix for BLTs well, minus the L. I was able to find some lovely green tomatoes at the farmers market and after I cooked up the bacon I fried the tomatoes. The tall one was so very happy with this and asked a lot of questions about the dish. It was cute to see him just want to talk about it and that twinkle in his eyes when he gets to eat fried food in his own house is so sweet.
