Since Sam was so excited about seeing Mary Poppins Junior, she has been on a real musical theater kick. She heard about a production of Annie at a church around the corner (her music teacher’s daughter had a role), and she insisted we go. Annie is not one of my favorite musicals, but I was ok with going. I love musicals and if Sam likes them, that works for me! I actually still remember my grandparents taking me to the Annie movie when I was a kid. It sticks out in my mind for some reason.
The production was actually good. The cast was pretty talented and we had a great time!
Sam’s favorite cast member was this little guy…
I am really going to try paying attention to the local productions that the high schools put on now. The shows are usually pretty good, not too long, tickets are cheap, and anything musical that Sam likes, I am happy to encourage!

Mark came home with some fresh pizza dough from Bertucci’s because he had a hankering for some sfinges, which are also known as Italian Zeppoli. They are essentially fried dough that is coated in sugar, like a donut. He has been eating them his whole life because his Italian grandmother used to make them all the time, then his mom made them too. Sam has only had them maybe once in her life because we never seem to make them ourselves, which is surprising, because we make so many of his other family recipes.
We were looking for them on the Internet and realized that what he had always called “spinGEES” is actually sfinges. No matter how you pronounce them, they are yummy! Sam was excited to help cook. Anything donut related is ok in her book!
Rolling them in sugar was her favorite part, for obvious reasons. Sugar. Duh.
Yum! Success! They turned out great!
