A Recipe For Disaster

Two nights ago, we were having spaghetti for dinner. When it came time to drain it, I reached in the cabinet to grab a colander & it wasn't there. I searched all of the cabinets & the dishwasher with no luck. I figured the kids had taken it in a bedroom to play or something, so I just grabbed the other one & drained the pasta.

Yesterday, Nathan was in charge of making breakfast...crescent rolls from a can. YUM!

He turned on the oven & got the crescents all ready to go in. The oven beeped to let him know it was preheated. When he opened it, smoke came billowing out, along with the stench of melted plastic.

Emmit ratted himself out by saying, "Oh, are my cookies ready?" Yeah...there was cookie dough in the colander!

What's This On My Cereal?

After the kids & I came inside from playing today, everyone wanted a snack. When I asked what, they both said cereal. Okay...2 choices: Frosted Mini-wheats or Rice Chex.

Both chose Rice Chex. Being the wonderful mother that I am, I sprinkled a little sugar on top for them (and on top of mine too), and put their bowls on the table. They both started chowing down!

Emmit was about halfway through his bowl, and he said, "Momma, why doesn't mine have more candy salt on it?"
