Secret Ingredient: Play-Doh



I know it's probably a little weird, but my older 2 still love to play with Play-Doh. They can spend hours shaping the dough and showing everyone what they have made. I used to hate the mess, but over the years, I have come to appreciate the hours of quiet that it offers.

On Friday, the weather was cold, Nolan and Laiken were still recouping from their bouts of pneumonia, and we were all feeling a little lazy. Laiken and Carson decided to have an Iron Chef America competition where they created different entrees out of Play-Doh and then had me and Farrel judge the "foods" on appearance and variety. We are big fans of Iron Chef America and it was so funny to hear Carson doing the commentary like Alton Brown does. After they created for about an hour, they presented the foods to us. Even Nolan got into the competition. Of course, we couldn't pick a winner, so we called it a tie!
