Cranberry-Orange Biscuits, Chicken-Fried Steak, some unpictured wings, and a sundae

Sunday was a busy day.

BREAKFAST



The new grater was put to good use with all the oranges that needed to be shredded for this recipe. Any dried fruit would have worked, so I picked cherry-flavored dried cranberries. Scrappy decided these were just raisins. "They feel like raisins, but they taste like cherries," I told her.

"No," she said. "They taste like raisins."

But she continued to help make them and ate two biscuits when they were ready.

LUNCH



The Bears play-off game started at 1 p.m. EST. This called for wings. We thought they might be too hot for Scrappy, so she was eating orange slices. "This one has a seed," she said before continuing to eat. Then she stopped. Looked at the seed she had put on her napkin and yelled, "It's my tooth!"

The stuff all over her hands in the photo is sauce from the wings. She decided to give them a try after checking out the hole her first baby tooth had left behind.

DINNER



I'd never had Chicken-Fried Steak before in my life, so I had no idea what it was supposed to taste like and very little idea what it should look like. I've decided creamy sauces are fun to make, but I just can't eat them.

This is a photo of Scrappy's plate. The only part she had a problem with was the mashed potatoes. Crazy. She likes corn, which I don't think counts as a real vegetable, but she got distracted trying to put kernels in the hole where a tooth should be.

DESSERT

While waiting for the Tooth Fairy to show up, LV decided he needed a snack. I offered up vanilla ice cream topped with Oatmeal Scothies and Butterscotch sauce. There wasn't much ice cream left. It would have been a very sad looking sundae in print. But it was tasty.
