I saw this cute recipe for jazzing up our super simple summer lunches and jumped on it.

Unbeknownst to me, this little guy had just checked out a book called "The Octopus."

I wish I could have captured his surprised face when I set his meal in front of him.

I wasn't ready for it, but he proceeded to grab his book to show me what he had been reading the night before.

I snapped my picture then.

The resemblance between the hot dog and the octopus is striking, isn't it?

Totally fun food for little hands!!

A side note:  As much as I am not looking forward to the start of school. . .yet,
I have big plans in the month of September--one in which includes attending my first blogging conference. Blog Sugar.
I have no idea what to expect.
What I do know is that the list of women putting it together inspire me.
I like perusing their blogs.  I learn some. I craft some. I read a lot.
I'm new to this whole blog thing.
I really had no plan of writing--just taking pictures.
But I like to talk--a lot. So the words just naturally needed to be said.
Pictures needed to be explained.
Memories needed to be recorded.
Sometimes questions needed to be asked.
So here I am--headed to Blog Sugar and excited to meet some fellow bloggers,
excited to see what message I bring home with me.
Generally excited to see what is in store!!!
