Duck watcher spots

Paul Ream Wilderness Park
10/10 you will always find ducks there

BYU Botany Pond
8/10 as long as it’s not winter they’re there

Provo River Trail
5/10 is about 50/50 if we see then there or not

Bicentennial Park
1/10 I think I’ve seen one here twice

Bread = bad for ducks
But they love peas, cooked rice, oats, and corn

Bug crafts for curious kids on hot summer days

Charlie has been loving the binoculars and wouldn’t even put them down for his nap. Can’t wait to see all the stuff he finds with them outside!

Any suggestions of where to look?

Week 2 Challenge: don’t follow a reicipe

Now I use the box mix cakes because making it from scratch is not worth the effort for the same taste. But I do change things up a little

1 Egg Replacement
1/4 c unsweetened applesauce
1/4 c mashed banana (about 1 small banana)

Oil Replacement
1:1 unsweetened applesauce
1:1 mashed banana
1:1 greek yogurt

Water Replacement
1:1 orange juice
1:1 passion fruit juice
1:1 strawberry puree

For fruits, add 1/2 tsp baking powder to help it rise fully

My current favorite is a chocolate banana peanut butter cake with mashed bananas replacing both the oil and eggs. The best!

Comment your favorite cake mix in!
