I tried a new recipe. I made those cupcakes in ice cream cones and the kids love them. I don't really like ice cream cones so I haven't eaten one. The cones turned came out of the oven a little soggy so I'm going to need to look that up and see if there is a way to prevent it.
S says she wants them for her birthday for her class and I already plan on making a few for Carson's birthday.
Kids love cupcakes in ice cream cones. It's such a contradiction. As a child, I would have hated it, it is like mixing food to me. I guess I still wouldn't like it since I won't try one. I think it's the soggy cone. I dislike soggy things.
I'm making those cowgirl cookies next from
Bakerella.
I'm still waiting to hear if S was elected student council. The other kids running missed school (hello, that should show you who really should be elected) so they postponed their speeches. We are really encouraging her to get as involved as she chooses to, to hopefully keep her on the right path.
Carson got a big boy haircut and boy is he a cutie! He's been so fun lately, playing very well and he's just hilarious. Just looking at parenting differences between children is amazing to me and I finally feel like I'm doing right by my children.
Tim and I mixed things up this morning and went on a breakfast date. We took S to the bus stop, waited, then headed to Waffle House. Waffle House is my weakness. Every now and again, the idea of greasy breakfast food makes me so happy. The only downside is how early it was.
I have read when you go on dates with your spouse, you aren't supposed to talk about kids, money, or work. Well, that's all we have to talk about. Actually, this morning we didn't talk very much and it was a great date.
On the way home, we laughed a lot about things the kids are doing and how funny they are. I'd say it was a success.
