Sometimes it is hard to cook and keep the kids entertained at the same time. Yesterday we had one of those afternoons when it just clicked - ah bliss.I was looking for some things to make with my big bag of sweet potato and a bag of corn that we picked up from the roadside veggie man on Thursday. So I made some sweet potato and corn chowder which was a big hit with the kids (probably because I did not mention the word soup!) and plenty left over for the freezer. And for a healthy snack I did some sweet potato chips in the microwave (i got the idea of this gals blog ). I used a few different seasonings and Ali had them with a ricotta and roasted tomato / onion and garlic dip, yummo and a success, you have to love it when that happens. 
The kids were happy to play with their playdough and "cook" me some things while Sami looked on.
On Thursday we had a very big roast up of all the veggies in the crisper and have had some lovely sandwiches and pasta since. I wish I had thought to do this sooner. I saw the other veggie man has crates of tomatoes yesterday so I was thinking I would do a big batch but I need to find out how long they would last in the fridge. that all for now ....
