10. toys lain at my feet by my two year old. She makes me feel like a
pharoah... which I am I guess considering how hungry she is. The value of
the items, though, is hard to say. Today, I had a pair of sunglasses, two
of the aliens from Toy Story, a bracelet, a plastic toy spatula, a wooden
block, three letters from her fridge phonics, and a Dora phone.
Essentials for any toddler purse I suppose, and essential for a pharoah's
afterlife...
9. Tupperware dishes full of old food in the fridge… I had to clear them all
out to find the butter. We definitely
need a bigger fridge to play leftover tetris in…
8. times I head the song “Born this Way,” chipette style, while
cooking. Granted, I did cook pizza,
brownies, and make some oat flour, but that I think should only warrant three
Gaga’s, one Gaga per dish...
7. p.m. when Kenzie took her afternoon nap. She just wouldn’t sleep while I
was cooking. I am sure you are thinking
she will sleep right through the night. HAHAHA…
Hello, and welcome to my blog newcomer…
6. meals planned out. I figured since
I was digging for ingredients, I might as well plan for the rest of the
week. I wish I could plan each day, but
my hubby is what I call a “moody” eater… he has to be in the mood for certain
foods. Yea, he is my pickiest eater… the
girls will pretty much eat whatever …
5. bricks of cream cheese in the fridge.
My husband was trying these diet shakes, and he loved the strawberry
cheesecake ones, but his busy schedule at work did not allow the making of
shakes. Oh what to do with all that cream
cheese….
4. pizza crusts before I found an easy, gluten free version. Basically, Jules’ requires complicated and
expensive ingredients, and I have been experimenting with different flours to make
one. I finally stumbled over an oat
flour/soy flour/Jules gf all purpose flour version with only 7 ingredients:
oil, salt, baking powder, milk, and the three flours. I was very proud of myself (I’ll post the
recipe here).
3. minutes it took Abby to eat her dinner once she found out the prize was a
cheesecake brownie. Abby eats as much as
I do, so it is hard to tell who has the eating problem…
2. cycles of the dishwasher to clean from my cooking escapade. I wish I could find a neighbor who loves to
eat and do dishes to complement my love of cooking… the only reason I don’t
cook more is because I HATE the clean up…
1. chilled cheesecake brownie (I swear I only had 1) with a cup of coffee…
and a 4 year old to have one-on-one time with.
I love these times at home during the summer when I can be a stay at
home mom and a full time wife. Teaching
allows you to be a working mom and a stay at home mom at the same time!
