After missing two weeks, Ethan is finally ready to head back to school tomorrow! And just in time for his HALF-BIRTHDAY. Whoohoo. What a ridiculous idea...half birthdays. As if regular birthdays aren't enough. Oh well, I know it's a nice way to acknowledge kids with summer birthdays. It's also just another thing for mothers to worry about.

Good thing I have the internet on my side and sort of like to worry about these kinds of things. Inspired by this recipe on Kiddley, using M&M's instead of pecans, Ethan and I worked on these very simple treats together.
That's the beauty of this recipe. Ethan was involved from start to finish and enjoyed himself. Of course, much of the fun was taste testing the various ingredients.
