The First Note
Sunday 02.12.06- Do laundry
- Buy butter
- Make scones
Today was a day not unlike any other Sunday. Laundry must be done; despite cup privileges being cut off by 6pm, my son still has the ability to retain massive amounts of water that not even the highest end diaper can contain. How potty training will ever occur successfully without a catheter or a bed pan or both . . . I haven’t the foggiest.
Sunday is the day I get my “hunter and gatherer” on: whip out those scissors and attack the Sunday ads. And glory hallelujah screams the inner baker to see butter on sale - three for $5.00! Oh the concoctions that will be made - giant ginger cookies, plattar, and most importantly: the scones. They come Mrs. Kennedy recommended, and I am certainly not one to take that lightly.
Much of the evening was spent engaging on the Scone Adventure: cranberry and white chocolate chips thrown in for kicks. Tomorrow I have an engagement with like eighty other moms, and I’m responsible for bringing some sort of breakfast fare. Being so close to Valentine’s Day, it was suggested that the food fit in with the theme of the season, a.k.a. I threw some red sprinkles on top of the scones - that’s what St. Valentine was all about, right?
