The other day, I found some well past sell-by-date rice cakes stuffed in the back of the snack cabinet. We got them a few years ago for the Loo but she never took to the no salt variety. I put them near our compost bucket for a trip to the great pile in the sky, but Papaloo had a better idea.
A little peanut butter, some hemp string and bird seed later, we had a party going on. For the birds.
The Loo has really taken ownership over her own PBJ sandwich making, so spreading the goo was right up her alley.
Messy, crumbly fun. These went together surprisingly fast. The duo started to experiment with double sided peanut butter cakes and are planning to document which get eaten faster, or last the longest.
I'm sure the squirrels will get more than their fair share even though we tried to hang them on the thin outer branches.
Bird books at the ready. Lunch is served!

That's a perfect solution to old rice cakes! We made several different birdseed ornaments over the last month. I really need to post them. I should do a whole week theme.
They are so pretty too. What a fun thing to do.
Drove by a bird feeder store in town yesterday--there was a huge flock of birds chomping away at one of their window feeders. I was wondering what was so delicious. The birds in town seem to prefer french fries, although the seagulls usually get those. Let us know what the research team discovers! --L
