Except I ate three of the cookies from a batch that went awry last night, which were tasty, but made me feel incredibly lousy afterwards.<br /><br />Both of Caroline's teachers are rail thin. They have a full time assistant, who we treat as a teacher, she's fit, too. One of the teachers, a guy, was patting his belly and saying he was gaining weight. I told him he had nothing to worry about. He's single and eats lots of junk food, though. He even named one of his students his 'nutritional consultant.' Ha!<br /><br />I told Caroline that we'll bring them 7 day passes to my gym next week to make up for all the sugar.<br /><br />I bet as a middle school teacher, you don't get as much love during teacher appreciation week. I'll have to keep that in mind when Caroline is older.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13525780741420745603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7934244054499048495.post-78628500700315235702011-05-06T19:44:27.273-04:002011-05-06T19:44:27.273-04:00I think I would have gained 10 pounds if I taught ...I think I would have gained 10 pounds if I taught Caroline this week! Oh my goodness! I have starred your last two recipes as in I NEED TO MAKE THEM pronto. But at the same time, I am scared to death I could eat them all!Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14509330205585025719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7934244054499048495.post-4695986012139891692011-05-06T16:11:51.618-04:002011-05-06T16:11:51.618-04:00Yes my mom is awesome.

And I'm saying it now, so when she finds out I didn't send her a Mother's Day card, she won't be too offended. :)<br /><br />See, the good thing about my mom is that she doesn't care about cards and gifts. Which, is totally to my benefit.<br /><br />Likewise, I don't care about them either. <br /><br />Hooray for the non-sentimental!<br /><br />Hooray for the lazy-good-for-nothing-daughters-who-hate-reading-through-purchasing-filling out-addressing-stamping-sending cards!<br /><br />Like mother, like daughter.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13525780741420745603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7934244054499048495.post-47524447168814002592011-05-06T15:44:10.605-04:002011-05-06T15:44:10.605-04:00Yes, canned peaches have a distictive smell to the...Yes, canned peaches have a distictive smell to them. I much prefer fresh.<br />Yes, your mom is awesome to have made brownies with peanut butter icing. Frosting? She must love you a lot. Or love brownies a lot.<br />She, too, would perhaps shove aside her firstborn to the first person to shower her with head-sized baked treats, even and especially a snickerdoodle or anything with brown sugary cinnamony crumbly stuff on top.<br />Mmmm....peachy groovy indeed.The Cook's Momnoreply@blogger.com
