Happy Chanukah/Hanukkah! For our snack today we had a menorah muffin tin, with gelt candle holders and pretzel candles stuck in place with peanut butter. Behind our muffin tin are Maccabee shields, made by the boys during their Chanukah program at Sunday School.<br />

Here's Corey singing before eating:<br />

Here's Zachary while putting his meal together (he's smiling not because he's enjoying being so healthy, but because I'd just said, "Was that a fart?"):<br />

Zachary went to school yesterday with a muesli bento (and some grapes, grape tomatoes and baby carrots). Milk to add later was in a separate container.<br />
<br />
Here's our recipe for muesli, which we don't usually have for lunch, but Zachary had a little trouble getting up, so he got his breakfast for lunch:<br />
<br />
3 cups rolled oats<br />
1 cup nuts (we used slivered almonds, and chopped walnuts and cashews)<br />
1/2 cup sesame seeds<br />
1/2 cup sunflower seeds<br />
1/2 cup pepitas<br />
handful of chia seeds<br />
1/2 cup cranberries<br />
1/2 cup raisins<br />
1 cup chopped apricots<br />
<br />
Into each serving we usually add honey or maple syrup and fresh fruit.<br />
<br />

<br />
(mostly dictated) by Corey<br />
<br />
The mouse wanted candy. So he went to the candy store. He was so very happy. He was not so sure about candy. The candy ate the tiny mouse. The fan blew the candy away. Then the mouse couldn't see himself. In the afternoon the candy couldn't see what he was doing. Then the mouse came alive and had so much fun. The mouse was sure about the candy's tummy. He got out by breaking the candy's tummy. The mouse wanted more candy, so he went to the wrong store. Then he ate the fan in my room. The ferocious mouse wanted candy again. So he went to the right store.<br />

The End<br />

<b>About the Author</b><br />
Corey wanted to author himself. When I grow up I want to be a rock star challenge. I like my favorite colors – red and sometimes green.<br />
