probably yellow snow is the main thing i'd stay away from.

it's muffin tin monday. today's theme is "color series - yellow".

it's sunny outside. and it's sunny inside. and just as i typed that out, i remembered what i had originally wanted to do for today's mtm. i wanted to do scrambled eggs. man. i totally forgot about those. eh. who needs them anyway. plus. they require cooking.

so we've got fresh pineapple with a dash of salt, bugles, yellow peanut butter m&m's, and vanilla yogurt with yellow sprinkles. while the girls snacked, i read "mouse paint" by ellen stoll walsh and "blue hat, green hat" by sandra boynton. twice. and every time i said the word "yellow", li'l tot would scream out "yellow!" and baby would scream out "ayayaya!". twice.

need a little more sunshine? head on over to muffin tin mom for a few extra doses. tell her i sent you.

Plus, eggs cause the youknowwhat.

Fancy in the know.

Cute! And now I'm hungry for bugles.

varunner said...

Eh, scrambled eggs are overrated. Especially compared to M+Ms.

JDaniel4's Mom said...

I love how the kids get so excited over having their normal lunch dressed up on MTM. Fun tin.

Michele said...

I was totally going to do a farmer breakfast this morning, since we're doing farm week, and make eggs with potatoes and cheese-um, I forgot too. Love the yellow food, especially the m&ms!

Kristie Clower said...

i had the same thought about yellow snow. Cute tins. I love that your girls were screaming YELLOW! (or "ayayaya!" in Baby's case) Nothing like a nice quiet meal. =]

MarketingMommy said...

We are a Sandra Boyton family! Very cute lunch and nice tie-in with the color books.

Amy said...

Oh man! I forgot about scrambled eggs too! Your tin looks great!

Too Many Hats said...

Peanut butter M&Ms - yum! I want to snack at your house. Would you read One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish to me while I do?

Insanitykim said...

Man,

You have sooooo many pretty muftan tins...they don't look old or gareysy like mine; they are in need of some good varnish...hmmmmm

Leah said...

What a great looking tin.

Wonder Mom said...

I have been inspired...I will now replace saying "yellow" with "ayayayaya." (Do ya think I'll get any funny looks?)

tristan said...

yellow's a good color. it's the color of the sun. the color of dandelions. and the color of a person's toenails when they wear nail polish for too long and finally take it off.

gah! why do i keep talking about nails?

Kitty said...

Tristan makes me laugh... well, everyone who posts on here does, actually.

I seriously have a hankering to have more babies so I can do all these new fun Mommy things with my own children, you know. Maybe I'll have to wait until I'm a Grandmother. I suppose that WOULD be easier. (But then, Motherhood is never ever about easy, now is it? If it is, I completely missed the manual on that.)

MY muffin tins would have had: Yellow Bell pepper strips, sweet corn, yellow (Gouda) cheese, Miel Pops (Sugar pops) and whole milk yoghurt sprinkled with yellow sugar crystals. OK, I feel like I have contributed.

mirjam said...

cute muffin cups and yummy foods.

great idea to read with it!

Michelle said...

I was going to do scrambled eggs too, but egg salad prevailed! I have never heard of salt on pineapples, we used to put it on cantaloupe and tomatoes, I'll have to try it the next time we have pineapples.

Jenny said...

My favorite yellow is the way our youngest granddaughters says it! "Lello slug bug, Gwamma!"

Much More Than Mommy said...

Now I want scrambled eggs.

Jenny in Utah said...
