The long weekend. I love and loathe long weekends. While it gives us more time with R2D2 it also tends to bring in a lot of melt downs because R2D2 and Tink get each other so riled up that Tink sometimes just explodes because she wants to do exactly everything that her big brother is doing.
Little Miss Independent. She's such a treat (sometimes not the good kind!). Like right now, she's having a fit because I won't let her drink my coffee and finish off my sweet scone. A good thing. 2 year olds don't need any help in the energizing department. Ever.
I decided to make sweet scones yesterday (the second time in a week, what can I say, they don't last long!) and now I'm regretting not making a double batch. There's only one left. Out of 18. Between 4 people. There's a problem, and that problem is, they're so good! These little treats are simple to make and well worth the 20(ish) minutes they take to bake. Eat them hot. Eat them cold. With butter or with jam. Any way you eat them...it's like a happy little party in the mouth.
I've started watching Cupcake Wars on Netflix. What a bad idea for someone that loves baking but hardly has the time for anything more complex then a quick batch of cookies. I miss baking. I miss baking so much that I've decided I'm making pumpkin cupcakes with a cinnamon cream cheese butter cream. With a dusting of graham crumbs (tribute to the graham crust) and a chocolate fan. Why the chocolate? Because I said so. And I hate pumpkin so there has to be something I like on these cupcakes. Thank you cupcake wars. You're a horrible, terrible show.
Still no paperwork. I'm getting flustered with this.
It's all a hurry up and wait kind of thing. The very thing I'm not good at.
