Flowing Brook Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 This morning I woke up early to put a roast in my old crock pot. I then proceeded to put the kids in front of video games so I could eat my bon bons and watch television uninterrupted. We then went grocery shopping for company tonight. As I was packing groceries I put the three year old in charge of putting the shopping cart in the empty parking space next to the car. When we got home I planned my Christmas shopping. We are doing all electronics this year. The kids don't play with anything else anyways. Kids and creativity is so over rated. Then I added cream of mushroom soup to the roast. I then put the instant mashed potatoes on the stove. When company came tonight I embarrassed dh by making everyone take their shoes off. I really do not understand why it was asking so much. If my ninety yo friend can put her shoes on to come to my house for supper why would it be so hard for her to take them off in my house. Well gotta go I have to take the kids to a school program tomorrow. I am bringing the cupcakes. Gotta get started making them. So tell me about your day. How did it go? :D Disclaimer: This post is meant to be humorous only. I am not making fun of anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandylubug Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Yeah, and was the frosting homemade or out of a can? Did you know you can make your can frosting double the volume and go farther by putting it in a mixing bowl and mixing it on high with a wisk attachment? And I have been known to dip strawberries in chocolate can frosting. True story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add confec sugar to it while wisking and it will hold it's shape through a pastry bag and fancy tip of your choosing. Bakery look on the cheap.
