Lookie Lookie, We made Cookie!
This Idea Came From: Trader Joes had this cute box of cookies and today was the day we made 'em.
Our Experience: Why can I not just lay on the couch when I am under the weather... no, no... I must make a craft or clean or sort or wash or shop or whatever else I do to keep myself from just sitting! We are a bit under the weather... so these probably should only be consumed by this household. Cootie cookies might not be all that appetizing to friends and family.
Emma put all the ingredients in the big bowl- and said the word ingredients a ga-ba-zillion times as she did so. What a big word for an almost 4 year old. She rolled all the dough and together we maneuvered the "aminals" to the cookie sheet. I really do not have to say our experience probably was not too much different from anyone's mother/daughter make cookies because we-need-to-get-out-of-this-house-but-can't cooking morning.
SPRING!!!! I know you are out there... I see you trying to melt this ice and snow. But please work faster.
The Lesson: Okay I did my cool mom thing for the morning.. now it is really time to go lay down and rest.

The Great Crayola Experiment
This Idea Came From: What a cool idea! http://grinandbakeit.com/valentines-crayon-hearts-craft
Our Experience: Oh my word... I do not know what I was thinking! These crayolas are still in that letter muffin cast iron thingy.Weeks later... still trying to figure out how to get them out!
The Lesson: Do Not use anything other than silicone, flexible bake wear... unless you like the challenge. As for me.. I would love to hear any ideas how to get this out of my muffin cast iron tin. So far... I tried somewhat remelting, flash freezing in snow, a knife and also... standing over it swearing directly at it... that didn't work either.
