Kids had to go to another ‘dress rehearsal’ tonight. They looked pretty good and hardly anyone fell over… always a good sign. The first actual performance will be tomorrow night… starts 6:30… and it looks like it might actually be pretty good 🙂
So… kids finish up and we come home.
When we get here… the little one reminds me she has her class party tomorrow and can she make some biscuits please? My immediate response was… aggghhh….it’s 8:45 already!!!! But then I calmed down a little, had a think and said “No! – too late… time for bed… I’ll do it”.
Did I want to make biscuits nope. I would’ve preferred to make some blueberry muffins… but I know *my* kids don’t like them so maybe their friends don’t. But luckily (for me) I remembered I’d bought two packets of gluten free ‘ready mixed and cooled’ packets of cookie dough to see if I was allergic to them, so dug them out of the fridge and, after a quick chop,… out came 30 reasonable looking biscuits. Highly toxic of course… filled with sugar and fats and who knows what preservatives but I figure it’s for a kids party so the more manic they get the better.
Anyway – whilst in general terms I’m not exactly in favour of these pre-packed monstrosities… they *do* have their place… and it’s not always in the waste bin! :D.
