Random Post

I have had a blogging block lately. I really don't know why. I just have not been into it lately. I thought I would try just posting a random post to see if it will jump start me back to blogging. Even though most of my blogs have been random and boring. There is just no creative juice flowing right now.
On to the randomness-

PURPLE mashed potatoes

We received some purple potatoes in our brown box last week and we made purple mashed potatoes. I thought they were so pretty. The purple in them is the same antioxidant that makes blue berries purple so I felt like they were better for me too. There is a mystery to these however, when I steamed the potatoes the water that was left in the pot was green. Why on earth would it be green? Green isn't even in purple. Does anyone have a guess to why purple potatoes create green water?

Barbie

Meet Barbie. Alex decided she is barbie. If you call her Alex she gets very mad and says "no, I'm Barbie!" until you apologies and call her Barbie. Along with the name she also needs the wardrobe so she wears this dress everywhere! I mean everywhere. She wears it to the gym, the store, to take Ayden to preschool, to friends houses, to the park, out to dinner and even to bed! It is driving me crazy since it has been going on for two weeks now. I just keep waiting for it to get old to her but it is not. It is looking very raggedy now and it is a fight every time I need to take it off to change the clothes underneath or wash it. I have only managed to wash it twice when it really should be washed everyday. We have other dress ups but she only wants this one. I guess it could be worse.

Naughty Children

One night Brad and I were enjoying some quiet while the girls were coloring at the table. I knew it was probably too quiet for too long but I had no clue this is what they were up to. They color with markers all the time with no problems so why did they decide to do exactly what they know they are not supposed to do this time? It is a mystery. It was all over the walls in the hallway too and the sliding glass windows in the kitchen. At least it was all on easy to clean surfaces except for their skin since they were not washable markers (forgive me for being cheap and buying the ones on sale).

Also, I was tagged and since there is nothing else to blog about I will give it a go-
