NatGeo in our laundry room: the spider versus the millipede thingy. I have never actually seen a spider wrapping up it's dinner in a web, à la Charlotte; it was fascinating. The spider was working it's little bee-hind off & the meal was doing it's best to wriggle away. I think the dinner got away: When I looked a couple hours later, the show was over & the entire web was gone...and a few days later I saw said escapee crawling across the floor.
This was how we chose to entertain the girls one night while waiting 45mins for our food to be served at an Ethiopian restaurant. Maddie was taking pictures with her phone, Fi was playing sudoku on Garrett's phone, Lib played chess on mine. Sign 'o the times?
Looky what our school got over the summer: Denver's first public elementary school authorized by the International Baccalaureate to offer the PYP programme!! Sweet!!
late one Saturday morning a few weeks ago, we heard fire engines -no big deal. Lib asked if it was on t.v. or outside, I said outside & then the sirens got louder & closer. Yep, 2 of the these bad boys and a rescue truck across the street from our house. Exciting & good eye candy ;P Thankfully it wasn't a serious fire!

That was a gross photo of the spider, I don't like those to be inside. It's fine in the garden, though.
Was the Ethiopian food worth the wait? I haven't tried that before.
Your daughters on their gadgets cracked me up.

the food was delish -all home cooked by one woman, so worth the wait. BUT we suspect that Garrett's credit card was compromised there...it was the only place where it had left his sight & then the next day odd charges showed up; lucky for us the bank caught on & froze the account after the first $12 charge went through -& before the $200 & $300 charges went through!!!
Aside from that, I LOVE Ethiopian food! & the necessity of eating with one's fingers is always a treat :)
