Manipulation cookies

The family has figured out how to get anything they want from me. They learned this and used it against me last night.

Everyone knows my baby girl is expecting and since the day she told us about it I have quite literally given her and/or done anything she wants. She is spoiled like that anyway being pregnant made it 10x worse.

Last night all the kids came for Sunday dinner and some pumpkin carving, while trying to get dinner on the table she says "do you have the ingredients to make some cookies?" Of course I do was my answer. And I started mixing up cookies. Because baby wanted cookies baby is getting cookies.

After getting some cookies in the oven we got ready to eat dinner and Stephen comes walking into the kitchen and asks "your making cookies for Brittnie? I said yes, he starts laughing Britt says "You are going to give yourself away." I am looking at them a bit confused at first then it hits me.

I have been manipulated. They figured out how to get whatever they want by sending my pregnant baby girl to ask for it.

Funny thing is...

I would do anything for any one of them they just have to ask. They had me though. I will literally drop everything I'm doing to do anything Britt wants right now. Don't get use to it sister come April only tiny baby will get that kind of attention from me for the rest of forever (or until I get more grandbabies)

So today after lunch I enjoyed a few of the manipulation cookies with a nice cold cup of milk.

Recipe for manipulation cookies:

Follow the printed recipe on the back of Toll house chocolate chips bag. (That's what I did)

Have a fantastic week!

I know it's been a while since I wrote maybe I'll be back again soon.

Thanks for reading.

Throwback Thursday

Let me just start by saying straight out of the gate that I absolutely hate to be on the front side of any camera much less my own. Now it isn't that I don't enjoy being in the moment, I do. I just enjoy taking the pictures instead of being in them if that makes any sense at all. With that said I'm glad I was on the front side of this camera this day. I suppose all little girls dream of growing up, getting married and having babies. I know when I was a little girl my friends and i would play house, we would more less mark of sections of the room as mine and theirs these sections would be my house or her house. we'd have baby dolls name them fun names. We had fun. I don't know that I ever really thought about actually having children when I grew up. And as I got older I remember that I didn't even want to get married when I grew up much less have any kids. But we all grow up. And that guy comes along t...

Super sweet scrub

So the picture isn't the best, you're not looking at a wonderful back drop or perfectly packaged product for this jar of sugar scrub. But what you are looking at is a simply wonderful homemade sugar body scrub. I am guilty of spending more than my share of time on the ever growing in popularity website craze "Pinterest" just looking and pinning, pinning, pinning. I asked myself some time last week "what is the point in this if I don't try some of the things I am pinning." So yesterday I found this recipe for a sugar body scrub, it helps take off dry dead skin and it hydrates as well. Now I know we haven't been hit with a bad winter (yet) but the air has been terribly dry and my skin is really suffering all dry and itchy. My hands have gotten so bad that they were starting to crack and bleed around my cuticles. So I made this scrub last night before taking my shower. Here is what I did: Mix 1/3 cup of each in a bowl Brown sugar Regular...

A new year

Ugh! I have started and deleted this blog entry more times than I care to admit. :) I have so many things floating around in my mind that I want to write about that I keep jumbling them all up on the page and they are not making sense to me so I am sure you will not have a clue what I am saying...babble, babble, babble... Anyway maybe this one will work for us all. The new year. 2012 Wow. I am getting so old, I don't ever recall thinking this far in to the future when I was a kid except maybe when I watched movies with flying cars and hoovering skate boards and such thinking it would be neat to have a flying car. but here we are still living a pretty normal life without all that stuff. I chuckle a little when I think of all the things I enjoy, these things certainly don't "fit" the year 2012 as the movie writers would write it. Because I don't want a flying car, I think it would be fun to ride a horse everywhere or have a covered w...
