Sticky Situation

SHORT STUFF: This is going to be short. I have spent most of the day elbow deep alternately in creamed butter and sugar or flour, water and glue. In other words, big baking and pinata projects going on.

CJ and Annabelle helped, of course. The first half of the day was doing the dreaded hunting and gathering. The second half was mixing and baking and mixing and layering (newspaper strips on exoskeletons).

In between, we did things like eat. I was feeling guilty that dinner for the kids was just rice, fruit and cheese, so I tried to jazz things up, hence the berries with faces above. I also made them some cheddar cheese men. The kids were pretty tickled. Right off, Annabelle decided to have a staring contest with her strawberry. The berry won, but Annabelle had the last laugh, as she ate it. :) Annabelle also had her second-to-last dress rehearsal for her (First Ever!) ballet recital today. It went OK. Mostly. :)

  1. Love the strawberries.

    Sounds like "end-of-the-school-year rush" is going on at MPA.
