A Weeks Worth Of Bloggin'

It's been a while since I posted something, so I figured I would sum up the week!

Here is some food for thought... have you ever seen Orange Cauliflower Head?

We were shopping in Save On Foods last weekend and saw one. I have never seen an orange cauliflower, so I bought one, wondering if it would taste different? Well, it tastes the same, just looks sexier in the bowl!! I took a photo of it, for those of you who have never seen such a "pretty" cauliflower head!

When Emma is not busy swinging, bouncing, reading or playing dress-up, she enjoys helping Rowena (and me) in the kitchen. She insisted on washing the dishes after dinner all week. Hey I am not complaining, as I know it won't last forever. Heck, the time she's a teenager, I will probably have to beg her for help in the kitchen!

This weekend the "RCMP Musical Ride" was in town performing. We thought we would bring Emma to watch the show. She really enjoyed watching the horses and loved all the Mounties in their Red Serge.

We managed to get some great photos of the different formations, but I only posted a couple of them.

Emma had fun after the show at the "meet & greet". The kids loved being able to walk up to all the horses and pet them etc. We even got to go to the barn/stables afterwards and watch all the members brush down the horses, polish up their leather and then give the beauties a snack.

Emma was so excited when she got to feed "Sassy". The handler got Sassy out of her stall, and walked her over to Emma (just a couple feet away), but instead of leaving the food on the palm of her hand and offering it to the horse, Emma threw the food at the horse, which landed in a pile of hay. Sassy of course is looking at Emma like... "Hey, that was my treat you threw away!" It was pretty funny, and Emma did not see the problem in it at all. The horses are huge, so I did not really expect Emma to let the horse come down to her and eat off her hand. She really enjoyed the whole experience.

Emma also managed to collect some of the Musical Ride police cards, which she was excited about. I think she will remember this outing for a long time to come!

Finally... today we headed out to do some shopping. Emma decided on a flower dress and a head band. I thought she looked so cute, I had to take a photo before we left the house. She is growing up so fast, it's hard to believe some days!
