Who knew Abe's house was so delish?

I hope I've mentioned before my wonderful sitter, Angela. She's a great fit for us because not only is she an experienced sitter, she also was homeschooled, so she helps me A LOT with Will's work. Earlier this week, I gave her a project I found online where you can create "Abe Lincoln's Log Cabin" with pretzels, peanut butter, and other various and sundry kitchen items.

Anyway, she needed me to actually buy the pretzels, which was the limiting factor. I did eventually remember, however, and it ended up being a great little project. He had a blast, and we all enjoyed the bounty of peanut-buttery snacks afterwards. (What? You didn't think we'd just waste all that food, did you?)

Will is a great architect. The cabin looks yummy.

Looks delicious! Of course, ours would be of Sunbutter, as PB would be the kiss of death in our house. Nice job with the aperture. =)

Thanks, Sandy! I am learning. This is a manual Nikkor 50mm 1.4. It was a gift from some friends of Ben's parents. I do think I'm going to go ahead and get an AF version, though, because the kids move awfully quickly for me to manually focus all the time, and I am in LOVE with the DOF on this lens!!!
