Easter happenings

We had a beautiful Easter Sunday. Our morning was complete with a scrumptious breakfast {where Evelyn didn't spit out her eggs! It was a triumphant event for all of us!}, followed by church, a nap, and an egg hunt. Jared and I were very surprised how quickly Evelyn caught on to the whole eggs in a basket thing, but then again she loves putting clothes in the laundry basket so it's the same thing on a mini scale, I suppose.

Let me tell you something else, that may look like a plain oatmeal up there, but goodness is it not and goodness is it divine. I'm sure the dish has a better name than "English Oatmeal," but when I was living in London our director's wife would make it for us, hence I've just deemed it English Oatmeal. Here's the scoop:

English Oatmeal
2/3 cup oil
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
{mix}

3 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 cup milk
3 cup quick oatmeal

Grease 9x13 dish. Bake at 350 for 30 min. Serve with half and half. Top with fruit.

Now we're off to patch a tire and pick up some snap peas! So far with each pregnancy I've had the opposite of food aversions, and rather been turned on to foods that I previously detested. Before Evelyn I would never ever touch an orange. I hated the feeling of stringy pulp in my mouth. But when I pregnant with her that was all I wanted. With this one, I am having a strong attraction to snap peas, which I again avoided before because I thought the pod was too stringy. I guess I like chewing on things when I'm pregnant.
