Fruit necklaces

We're going out of town this weekend, so today is a flurry of packing and last-minute chores. But Anouk and I did take the time to make some quick Friday fruit necklaces (as seen on the Artful Parent) for our snack. We used (unflavored) dental floss and embroidery needle to string Trader Joe's frozen berries, some grapes, and a cut-up apple (we also tried a mango, but it was too ripe to stay on the string. Delicious first-world problems!)

We ended up inadvertently fruit-juice tye-dyeing a few shirts and part of the couch, which only added to the overall load of things to do this afternoon, but we a lot of fun, too. And that's what matters, right?


Happy weekend, Blogland!
