I wish to be always childlike. I have two children to help me fulfill this wish. It's a good thing I have them too because I become much to absorbed in the chores I want to get done. I forget that " in every job that must be done there is an element of fun. Find that fun and SNAP, that Job is a game." A couple of weeks ago I needed to scrub my floors down ( every two weeks or so I hand scrub my floors and move all the furniture) I was determined to get this done! But my daughter wanted a story. Guess what story she wanted? Cinderella, because " Mommy is my princess." After reading Cinderella Hailey wanted to help. Now she had to be dressed as a princess, of course, so we got her in a get up and she found the dress that was given to me to make her a princess outfit. She insisted that I be her Cinderella. We were Cinderella together.
Every mom should get a gown at the thirft store, get a gown a few sizes too big and do this. I couldn't believe how much fun we had.
She actually worked very hard!

You may have noticed that I have an addiction. It isn't to sweets, I
like a good dessert as much as the next person but I really just want a
taste and I'm satisfied. I don't want a lot of anything so I don't bake
often. I'd have to eat the stuff more than I want to and I'd be really
fat. I worked hard to get skinny! I'm addicted to baking. Not just
baking but experimental baking. I love it when people invite me over and
ask me to bring dessert. This give me a chance to break out my blender,
my coffee pot, the nutella and maybe a recipe for guidance. ( I didn't
say I was a mad scientist! ) Today I made a cake that will probably kill
us! One slice might just send us to heaven! I made my favorite
chocolate cake ( wacky cake!) and created a monster. I got creative with
peanut butter ( well chocolate NEEDS peanut butter!) Nutella and cream
cheese. Then I made some whipped cream, but I thought who wants plain
whipped cream? So I made some hazelnut coffee icing. Then I thought this
just isn't right. What is missing? Chocolate whipped cream! YES! I
didn't have a frosting Bag so I made one and this is what came out of
the kitchen. Frankenstein Monster! Like I said this cake might just kill
us, but what a way to go! AND I'm super excited! If my one piece of
cake doesn't kill me then I can make a chocolate cake with raspberry
filling for my friend on a vegan diet. I'm going to die of happiness
because I don't have to figure out what to do with the cakes later. As
you can see, I don't have to figure out what to do with the whipped
cream left in the bowl.
