Guitar, Teeth and Cribs

 I have three things to post about tonight: Teeth, cribs and  Guitar.

I was woken up today by Emma who lost a tooth last night!  This is her third tooth to lose and she is only five and a half. It is also the 3rd tooth she has lost in the last month. The first tooth she lost, we didn't even know that any of her teeth were loose, and she woke up missing one of her bottom teeth.  She didn't even remember losing it, it just disappeared (She probably swallowed it).  But after she lost that tooth were wondering if she had other loose teeth, she had 3 more loose, all her front teeth and top and bottom!  About a week ago, she lost the second one and today the 3rd. There is still one that is very wiggly ad probably going fall out any day.  Here is Emma showing off her missing-teeth smile and showing her tooth:


Second, today was my first guitar lesson.  One of the girls in my neighborhood wanted to learn the guitar and I agreed to teach her.  I'm not a super professional guitar player, but I like to play and I like to teach, so as of today I guess I am a guitar teacher



And Finally, a new crib!  Our twins have been sharing a crib, because they are little babies and don't need much space.  But recently they have started to wiggle more and move around.  Every so often, the babies would hit each other in the face and wake each other up.  So, we decided to get a second crib so the babies can sleep at a safe distance from each other.  I think they can still see each other through the bars so they won't feel all alone!

Dallas Dream of Cherry Pie!

Image
 Happy Valentines Day! This week I needed a pie that was more or less red in the middle for Valentines. I have never made a cherry pie because cherries are not in season yet, but I decided this was the week for cherry. I had to buy frozen cherries from Wegmans.  The pie turned out ok, I was hoping my hearts on top would look nicer, but I guess I'm not much of an artist.   This pie was tasty, the crust turned out nice.  I think I would have been better had I used tart cherries like most recipes suggest, but I only had  sweet dark ones frozen.  It was still pretty good though.

Dallas Dreams of Chilled Grapefruit Meringue Pie

Image
Again I tried to do something more unique, and I don't think this one turned out super great.  I mean, it was okay. It was sweet and creamy, but it just didn't live up to the vision inside my head. The meringue on top did not work.  I guess I don't know how to make them since my lemon meringue pie was also a flop.  It was just a gooey mess stuck to the top.   And then there wasn't a very strong grapefruit flavor. This was definitely my own fault because I couldn't get any grapefruits to zest (meaning there were no quality grapefruits at the store), so I used oranges instead.  I did use grapefruit juice in the curd in the middle, but it was still not very strong. I also don't think I used the right type of caramel in the middle cream portion.  Finally, I think I left them in the oven a second too long. You can see they are a little more black than I would like.  In addition to the pie not working the way I thought, it was also the most difficu...

Book Review: The Name of the Wind

Image
 I finished reading "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss. This is not typically the type of book I enjoy reading, and I kind of started reading it on a whim, without really knowing a lot of about it and it turned out that I really enjoying the read.  It is a fantasy book, set in a fantasy place, but I felt like it like it wan't TOO fantasy-esque.  Like there is magic, but they don't call it magic, and they treat it more like a science.  The  main character goes to college to learn about it.  But in addition to learning about magical things, they also take classes like logic, and medicine, among other stuff.  I don't know exactly what it is I liked about this hero adventure, perhaps it was the main character, or the world it is set in. I read it pretty quick because I was interested in what was happening. Unfortunately it is a series and the story stops very suddenly at the end.  I will probably even read the next one at some point.  In ...
