Friday afternoon the skies opened up and it rained pretty heavily. It didn&#8217;t last too long. Saturday there was a threat of rain and it did rain for a little bit but it wasn&#8217;t too bad. Yves took Sienna to play in the back while I baked banana cupcakes with a whipped peanut butter frosting. Then I ran over to the market so Yves can grill up some burgers. I laughed out loud when I came back to discover Sienna was totally carefree (see photo for specifics)! The pool and sprinkler was out and they were wet and running around and having a great time. Yves finally turned out a batch of burgers he was very happy with.<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/buttnaked500.jpg\" alt=\"buttnaked500.jpg\" \/><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/yvespreparesburgers500.jpg\" alt=\"yvespreparesburgers500.jpg\" \/><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/yveshappyburgers500.jpg\" alt=\"yveshappyburgers500.jpg\" \/><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/siennamouthopen500.jpg\" alt=\"siennamouthopen500.jpg\" \/><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/bancuppbfrost500.jpg\" alt=\"bancuppbfrost500.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nThe frosting tasted a lot better later on in the day and the next day.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/siennahelppancakes500.jpg\" alt=\"siennahelppancakes500.jpg\" \/><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/baconchocochippan500.jpg\" alt=\"baconchocochippan500.jpg\" \/>Sunday I made <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vosgeschocolate.com\/product\/bacon_chocolate_chip_pancake_mix\/bacon_and_chocolate\" target=\"_blank\">bacon chocolate chip pancakes<\/a> (thanks for the mix Brenda!) and Sienna even helped. At first Yves wasn&#8217;t interested in trying it but then he did and we all liked them. Sienna even asked for more (although I made hers without the bacon chocolate). Then we went down to Park Slope so I could take my film into get developed at Accurate Photo. Yves and Sienna went to the playground by the Stone House while I waited by the photo store to be opened. I waited. And waited. And waited. Then gave up. Turns out they were closed when we drove by at 1pm! I usually go on Saturdays but thought they were open on Sundays as well. So disappointed! Anyway, we had lunch at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theperchcafe.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Perch cafe<\/a>. The food is good but service is slow as molasses! It also totally annoys me when a table that orders after us gets their food before us! Clearly the waitress does not have kids\u00c2\u00a0 and doesn&#8217;t understand the urgency of keeping the visit as short as possible. <img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/atperchcafe500.jpg\" alt=\"atperchcafe500.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nSienna got mac and cheese<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/turkeyclub500.jpg\" alt=\"turkeyclub500.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nMy turkey bacon club<br \/>\n<img src=\"http:\/\/thebunnylog.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/playblocks500.jpg\" alt=\"playblocks500.jpg\" \/><br \/>\nTired of playing tea party, Yves talked her into playing blocks instead!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hurricane Bill thwarted our beach plans (they closed the beaches due to rough riptides) but we had a nice weekend regardless!
