Greek Day! Pictures this time!

So after what, two weeks have gone by since I said that the next "___ Day" would be taking place...finally it is taking place!

I am liking these days :) Wonder how many more can be had... Anyway here is a photo from Greek Day. The kids were eating their Bean Salad and Crustulum while 'lounging' (because that's all the Greek did, dontcha know? heehee).

Lee generally does the planning for these Days but will ask our opinion on the choices she makes -isn't that nice of her? :) She made a list (using Laurie Carlson's Classical Kids for reference) of what we were going to eat for the day.

1. Cinnamon Raisin Rolls (just what it sounds like!)
2. Bean Salad with Crustulum (french bread with fresh garlic rubbed on it and oil)
3. Olive Rolls and Spinach Triangles

For clothes she used Patterns for Theatrical Costumes by Katherine Strand Holkeboer for ideas. Fox is wearing a tunic and Lee is wearing chiton. Fox's is made from a spare bit of blue fabric that we have had for quite a while. Lee's is her sheet from her bed :)

Here is what they are supposed to be resembling:

Right now they are making bean mosaics using our, ahem, collection of dried beans and old jar lids. I will try to post more photos later but the batteries died in my camera after I took the one of them lounging/eating.

OH, and I received Greek N Stuff's Hey Andrew! Teach Me Some Greek today in the mail (for review from the TOS Crew- you'll have to wait for the actual review in April!) and so we will start on that today. Fox said: "What a great day to get that in the mail!"

More later!
