Sunday Funday

On Sunday we let Daddy sleep and we went to the Fairview for doughnuts and coffee (no pics - hands full!) and then down the street to the zoo. Clementine's requested animals to visit: 'lions, elephants, rabbits'.

Who can I call about having the most beautiful toddler in the world? She needs to start earning her milk money.

'ELE-PANT!'

'MOMMY!'

'It's a little tiny ele-pant!' 

(It's a babirusa which really does look like a little tiny elephant from this vantage point).

Hippos underwater.

Intense concentration and obedience for face painting.

Home to drop off Josie for nap; Local Coffee then Central Market.

The highlight of the weekend. C pointed out a cut-out of a cow in the dairy section and when we rounded the corner to the frozen foods she said, 'I wanna look at the hippopotamus!' Thinking she was just talking about the hippo we saw ninety minutes before, I murmured, there's no hippopotamus... and then I looked where she was pointing and YES!

The back of that signage does look like a hippopotamus! Who can I call about a having a genius toddler?

Bumper sticker.

Late afternoon Target run. Josie started squealing with delight when she saw the cart. Clem wore her 'hat with the fwowers' (=swim cap).

By the way, almost-fall in SATX= 98 degrees.

Make today awesome.

Hat off in three...two...one.

Going over the zoo map aka 'any purse contents that will buy some time until food arrives'. We went back to Tarka where J polished off a lot of saag paneer. Luke would like you to know his hair is not gray.

Trader Joe's for

you guessed it.

Other weekend stuff: a tough Alamo180 Saturday workout; meal prep including shredded chicken with my new favorite sauce which tastes exactly like the mustard balsamic glaze on the barbecued shrimp at Cardwell's on the Plaza. I poached the chicken in the slow cooker, shredded, tossed with this sauce. Freakin' delicious and almost no work. (I found it at Target). I also finished The White Queen miniseries (if you like your capes velvety, your bosoms heaving, and historical fiction heavy on the fiction, you'll like this.) I guess I need to watch Olive Kitteridge now -- it swept the Emmys last night. C and I did more yoga until she had very un-yogic meltdown, wailing I DO YOGA! I DO YOGA! I DO YOGA YOUR PHONE! when I took the phone away because she kept pausing and starting, pausing and starting the video. On Friday night we hit up new spot in the neighborhood, BurgerFi, for National Cheeseburger Day - delicious! Already planning the next outing... #noms.
