Nourishment

Ken had a cold, so Julia and I left him at home and spent the morning at the Air & Space Museum, aka the "rocket ship museum," where we saw rocket ships and two planetarium shows. Julia tolerated the movie about black holes, but the narration was a bit over her head. She enjoyed the night sky show, however, and knew many of the answers about the planets, clever girl.

Then we inaugurated our new bento boxes with lunch in the cafeteria:



Despite the fact that's March tomorrow and spring is theoretically 3 weeks away, it continues to be unrelentingly wintry. The only answer is to make warm foods.

So tonight, for dinner, I baked up my small "confetti" bag of potatoes with a favorite recipe for herbed roasted potatoes from the Working Stiff Cookbook.



And the (cholesterol free!) milk chocolate Betty Crocker Moist cupcakes just came out of the oven for cooling.
