Their little kids are always entertaining.
Spencer is getting bigger all the time and makes us happy whenever he breaks into his huge grin. He's a little tight-lipped in this photo, though.
Eli loves climbing into things.
Brooke and Caroline love eating everything they can find.
Fortunately in this picture, they are eating something healthy. Usually Brooke goes straight for the pantry and finds the marshmallows.
The last time the girls were here, they got involved in a project of making Wheat Thins.
Rebecca had wanted to give it a try and so she pulled out the Whisper Mill, ground some wheat, added the other necessary ingredients and started rolling and cutting.
Sarah was convinced Rebecca was making her squares too tiny. Sarah's looked huge, but when she put a real Wheat Thin on top of one of her squares--it was pretty much perfect.
Oh, weren't they so smart and healthy as they were making their own crackers?
Final verdict was...
...the homemade crackers were about twice the thickness they should have been and perhaps not quite as tasty as the original. In fact, Sarah declined taking home her baggie of freshly-baked crackers.
Does that say anything for the quality of their Wheat Fats?

This post made me laugh. Love that we named ours Wheat Fats. And I loved the picture with Becky wearing the "Domestic Diva" apron and you can see the comparison Wheat Thin on her homemade mini Wheat Thins. Love it.
Thanks for letting us make a mess of your house so often!
Sarah didn't take hers home?! Eli loved them! (Caroline did, too.) Confession: I haven't eaten many of the ones I took home.
Another confession: I want to try this again. This time with paprika and rolling them directly on the parchment so we can get them thinner without having to transport them to the pan.
Sarah, you with me? Mom, you have to be with me whether you like it or not. I need your grinder...and your counter...and your wheat...etc. I think I'll bring my own paprika, though.
