We are still sick in this house. Well, Claire and I are. MJ is just being her sweet self and is apparently having a growth spurt which is causing her to to take a long nap every afternoon and sleep 12-14 hours a night. Praise Jesus.
Claire has been on a baking kick which is fine by me because I love it. I learned quickly how to make this process fun for BOTH of us after we tried baking a disastrous batch of brownies together. The brownies weren't good and we were both mad.
Moving on.
NOW when we bake, we each have our own bowl. We each mix up our own ingredients. The difference: Claire's batter winds up all over the counter and floor and mine turns into something we eat in 18-20 minutes. :) We both have fun, and it's worth the clean-up in the end.
Last night she requested cookies and I just happened to have "pinned" a strawberry cake batter cookie recipe I figured she'd love- being pink and all. (it was just okay)
So while we DID make our own "batches" of cookies, with the amount of coughing happening, I won't be handing these cookies out to any healthy people.
Here are pictures, you can see how sick she is in her eyes. It was fun and a good distraction from feeling badly. Oh, and ignore the smoothie all over her face.
This last picture basically sums up why our baking method is 100% effective for a good time :)
