We went to a local farmer's market last weekend to partake of the colorful produce. While we were there, a local band was performing and entertaining the kids. Don't you just want him to be your Grandpa?
We also stopped off at Coptic Festival (similar to Greek Orthodox, but Egyptian) to support Mat's coworker Noha. May I say that Egyptians are beautiful people. Their half-moon, rich eyes really put an exclamation on their face. Anyway, they had some great gyros and falafel. Unfortunately, it was raining on the bounce houses so the kids sat while Mat and I indulged. I keep telling the kids that if they would just open up their taste buds to more options, it would be a mini bounce house adventure within itself. They didn't go for it. Lambe! (get it? lame, but lamb because of the gyros)Later, we got in the car to go check out Eat Street, where dive restaurants of foreign foods are wedged in between one another between 19th and 26th. We were in the mood for some Thai, but we could only find Vietnamese so we looked up a local Thai restaurant, which brought us within walking distance from our house. We parked the car and trekked upward to Amazing Thailand where we found a quiet patio outside as not to disturb the other paying customers. How do you say fantastic in Thai?

Love the family pic - so cute of all of you! I need to take a tip from you and widen my food options. I'm a bit like the little ones and turn my nose up too quickly!
That sounds so fun and adventurous! Not to mention yummy!
