Living with boys

I found myself home with a sick kid today. So after vacuuming the entire house, mopping the kitchen floor, stripping all the sheets on the beds, washing them and remaking all the beds, doing 5 loads of laundry, making a batch of Rice Krispie treats, running to Blockbuster for more movies, stopping at Wegmans for supplies and the State Store for wine...I threw a pot roast in the oven and well...NEEDED SOMETHING MORE TO DO. Are you throwing things at me? It's understandable; I am sick, accept it. Anyway I decided to throw out the Tollhouse cookies I made Monday because they weren't quite perfect. Again; I'm sick, accept it. Anyway, I go to grab my Kitchen Aid mixer and what do I find? A Clone Trooper...who might I add was in quite a predicament in my blender. Sigh. I bathe with crocodiles, I sleep with Komodo Dragons, I apparently cook with Clone Troopers and well...I live with boys.
The second batch was MUCH better by the way.

Love, love, love your blog! I have three boys too - Julian, Cooper and Ryder. I too find the strangest things lurking around every corner! And your cookies look deee-licious!

I'm sorry.....you threw out cookies because they weren't perfect?? You wasted chocolate??!? Were they edible? Please - some of us are extremely chocolate deprived & would accept 2nd rate hand-me-down homemade cookies. :-) But, yes, the batch you photographed looked perfect. Damn your inner Martha.
