Did you bake with your mom as a kid?

My girls LOVE to create disasters in the kitchen
otherwise known as
baking with mom!


cupcakes are a favorite of mine
since they are the least messy in general

DD13 likes to make 9 by 13 cakes and decorate them for hours
DD10 likes to make cut out sugar cookies, which take forever

My mom baked once in a very blue moon. I have an aunt who would have my cousins and me bake with her.

Hi Ilove. How are you?

vanilla cream pie
is llike coconut cream pie
it is a pudding base
and a graham cracker crust
with just a sprinkle of graham crackers on top
you have to cook the custard/pudding filling

 

[turning40withMickey]

My mom was Betty Crocker
she made everything from scratch
always baking bread, rolls, pizza, she did pie, too
canning (don't miss that a bit)

she sews, too
made us matching outfits for every holiday


cloth diapers on the babes

Oprah had an amazing people show this week

families in North Carolina (14 families have adopted 33 orphans from Liberia)
a black family with sextuplets who are now seven
a dwarf couple who adopted three abandoned dwarf children
conjoined twins who were seperated at four, shared a kidney and mom gave one of hers to one child


very inspirational show!

Sarah, I am missing your news updates
I am having to rely on Oprah and the View to keep me on top of things!

I had a delicious cup of tea just a few minutes ago
too rushed this morning to have a good one before church


so I am thinking of just reliving breakfast all day

I had a cup of tea and a cinnamon roll at one
think I can convince the kids we should have breakfast for dinner?

 

[turning40withMickey]

Of course,
to pull of a breakfast dinner
I will need to buy eggs, and milk
and more


it is losing it's appeal!

Any good shopping deals I shoulld look for i ?

CVS has cases of water for 2.99
need to stock up on that since we donate water to swim
for the meets

limit three
per day, I am guessing....
though my CVS will be lucky to stock six total for the week
just a small store

 

[turning40withMickey]

okey schmokey

it has been delightful talking to myself here
but now I have to run to the store
because even if we don't have breakfasat for dinner
we have few other options either
until I get some groceries
bah!

[turning40withMickey]

I got three cases of water
after finding a coupon for three bucks off online
oh, happy day

I took the flu quiz at cvs.com
and now I have a five dollar off coupon
you have to spend 25 bucks though

I got 1.50 Extra Care bucks back at the register,
not sure what that was from....
but it will be nice to spend it next time!

tonight's drama

DS forgot his golf clubs today
he went with a former neighbor who moved across town

the neighbor brought them back
and stopped over to visit the owners of the three dogs (our next door neighbor)
and one of the dogs bit him on the arm when he walked up the driveway!


he came over to tell us to watch out for the dogs
(good advice 'eh?)
