Lots of This and That

This is going to be a very random post - everything from recipes, fridge decor (yep, that's right), and kid pics. What can I say, my brain is a little flustered at the moment! :) 

First up is a new recipe. I haven't done a recent recipe recap in a LONG time, but that is mostly because I haven't been trying many new ones. One of our fave veggies is zucchini but I tend to make it the same way every time - sauteed with onions and garlic. Just for something different, I decided to give these Zucchini Tots a try. 

They were delicious! It is almost the same kind of mix you would use for meatballs - bread crumbs, egg, and zucchini. Then you just plop it by the spoonful into a mini muffin pan and bake. How good were they? It made 24 and Jason and I ate them all in one sitting. :) 

Next up: fridge decor! I know that sounds weird, but it is amazing what a little finesse can do for the front of an appliance you look at a lot. 

The pic of the kids is from last year at Christmas but I just can't take it down - they are too cute! The pic with lots of people is our family reunion from two years ago. I LOVE it. The I Love Pizza magnet is self-explanatory if you know me at all, and was one of my favorite birthday gifts this year from my brother and sister-in-law. I just recently had the picture magnet made of Jason and his dad and I thought it turned out great. Jason thoughtfully suggested that we give it to his dad though, so I grievously parted with it. :) 

So here's the front of our fridge now (minus the pic of Jas and his dad). The dry erase calendar has been a great recent addition too. 

Alrighty, now for the fun stuff - KIDS! I don't have a ton of pics, but wanted to share a couple. Here's Harrison, working really hard at his computer (I love how his neck is all squished up!):

Eden's latest feat is learning to dress herself. She doesn't always get it exactly right, as portrayed in her wrong-side-out clothes below. But we are proud of her tenacious attitude! 

Last, we are temporarily keeping Joe and Sarah's dog, Jasper, while they make the move from HI to GA. I won't say it's been a walk in the park, but Eden absolutely adores him. They have been fast friends and almost every picture I have taken of her in the last week has him in it too. It's so sweet!

So that's it from the Caranci's this week - not really anything major. But tomorrow the kids and I are headed on an adventure! We are flying to see my parents for a couple of weeks, so I will probably be MIA on the blog til later in the month of March. But the recap of our trip will no doubt be exciting!
