Lego!

Everyone should know how I enjoy building Lego sets. I reviewed the Pleygo service, which I still think is awesome. But I know that some people would rather buy them to own and display. Or... you could be like me and need that one part to complete a set and not want to buy another full set just to get it. If you are local, and in need of Lego anything (just about), there is a place to go besides the Lego store at the mall. San Antonio Plastic Bricks, Inc. is a local store front. It is a family owned company that has been growing over the past 2+ years and I must say, quite amazing. The owner, Ron, buys and sells in Lego kits (sets), parts, mini figures, manuals... list goes on. If you have some to sell, stop by and see him. He even has custom mini figures that are really well done.
I'm hoping to finish my own project after making a stop by his store...
For those who aren't local, but still interested - fear not! There is hope for you through the wonderful, World Wide Web. He sells via Brick Link, eBay, Amazon.
And keep up with what's going on through the
Facebook page.

Alisa, I hope Artie enjoys the video! Thanks for being such a strong supporter of my blog and yes, I'm going to get your kids hooked on Lego!!! 8-)

Another recipe idea

My reader, Alisa, shared a recipe she tried out from All Recipes.com. Ham and Cheese Crescent Roll-Ups. It turned out to be a real hit with her kids, so I hope to test it out here too.
It requires only three ingredients:

  1. A can of Pillsbury Crescent Dinner Rolls (more if you have more mouths to feed)
  2. 4 thin slices of cheese, cut into strips
  3. 8 thin slices of cooked ham (you can substitute another meat)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread out the crescent rolls.
Sprinkle a little bit of cheese on top. Then add the ham over that with more cheese to top it off.
Roll them up carefully and place on your cookie sheet.
Put them in the oven for about 10 minutes
or until the tops are golden brown.
Even her pickiest eater enjoyed them.

New lunch idea

It's hard when you have three young and picky eaters. I don't want to make hot dogs, chicken nuggets and French fries daily. I can't afford to go out somewhere daily either. I can barely manage that more than twice a month. So today, as I'm standing in front of my refrigerator, I was trying to think of something different for their lunch. 
I had some crescent rolls, pepperoni, and cheese slices.
They'd been bugging for pizza for the past couple days and I decided to make some... Sorta. I didn't think about adding sauce this time around. 
Basically, unroll the crescents. Top with the pepperoni. 
I didn't have shredded cheese so I ripped slices in half. 
I also made some peanut butter and jelly ones, but my oldest was the only one willing to even try one. Just not good enough to substitute for a PB & J sandwich. 
For the peanut butter kind, I didn't roll them. I folded them. 
Once the toppings are ready, roll them up. I added cheese on top too, but they would be good without that. 
Pop them in the oven for about 8 minutes or so. Sadly, my kids didn't really want them. I ate a couple and really enjoyed them. Next time though, I plan to add some sauce. It's simple, quick and a better alternative. 
If you have any lunch ideas for picky eaters, leave me a comment!
