Our 54th slice of toast - Cream cheese, apple & cinnamon

The cinnamon is back! And so is the cream cheese! And so is the apple, though he hasn't appeared much. This apple was a 'red apple' from the Co-Op. Not very useful, but it was nice and juicy. I think we all know that cinnamon and apple are like two pea's in a pod. Actually they're nothing like pea's wherever they are, but the saying still stands.

We opted for sliced apples, using a table knife and self-taught cutting actions. Grace isn't allowed to use knives for cutting because it isn't safe. She forgets she's holding things and oh, there goes the finger. We don't have time for that sort of tomfoolery, we've got toast to eat. We laid the apple slices over the cream cheese, slightly overlapping at the edges. We then sprinkled on the cinnamon and no, I didn't forget my stencil.

The slice tasted great, but we did encounter a problem, dubbed the upwards face slap (UFS). This is the opposite to the chin slap dangle (CSD) discussed in previous blog slices 30 and 37. It was Grace who confronted the problem head on when she bit in to the edge of an apple slice which then proceeded to flip upwards, hitting her in the face. IN THE FACE. Talking of faces, we made one from the remaining apple, its sticker and 2 blueberries. I hope you like it.
