Breakfast

This morning started out like any other Monday with me asking for suggestions for breakfast.  Our usual breakfast choices are oatmeal, eggs, toast, muffins, or cereal(I have been trying to give them less of this one).  We usually always have a green smoothie to go with whatever else they choose.  This morning I was feeling like something new.  I looked online and got the idea for parfaits.  They sound fancy, but include things my kids like - fruit, yogurt and granola.  I asked Catherine to help because our mornings usually go better when she has a part in helping with breakfast.  She decided she wanted to write out the recipe then make them.  I defrosted some frozen berries for her and she did the rest.  We also decided to make crepes with strawberries and a little bit of chocolate whip cream.  Catherine liked the breakfast so much she asked for the same thing for lunch.  No yelling or whining with everyone eating breakfast means it was a winner.  I'm sure they will be asking for this tomorrow.  The recipe for crepes is here.

Catherine wanted to write out her own recipe for her parfaits 

She made one for her and each brother
