For some reason I find this hilarious

This is a text conversation I just had with Cory. I'm at work and I asked him
To start a loaf of bread in the bread maker to go with the dinner we are making for the missionaries tonight. Apparently the concept of a bread maker is a little mind boggling :)

C: Srsrly tho. How do I make bread in the bread maker?

A: Sorry- all recipes-
Look up white bread and use the one with like 400 plus reviews
It's super easy

C:"Traditional white bread"?

A: Sure

C: So just mix it up then put it in the machine at the kneading part?

A: Put the ingredients in. Turn machine on , select white then light then press start.
The machine will do everything

C: I need to get it to a dough first though don't I?

A: No
Just put it in the thing and press it down until it clicks. It's really easy

C: Srsly? No mixing of any kind?

A: No it does it for you -turn it on make your selections and go. It's a bread maker.

C: Where's yeast?

A: In the fridge

C: Ok. Well see if you're right...


My husband is awesome. I wonder if I should pick up some rolls on the way home???

Flashback Tuesday

Carter is sporting my overalls today. A'la 1982. Pretty cute if you ask me.

Independent play

Tuesday/Thursday nights lately Cory has been teaching a JavaScript course in Georgetown (not at Georgetown, but in the general area :)). Anywhoo, this puts me alone with my darling offspring all night long. Tuesday it's a particularly long day because I work from home. Last Tuesday I decided I would do something fun and crafty during the 'witching hour' before dinner. My sanity after a long day watching kids/ getting 8 hrs of work done depended on it. So I made hair bows and let the kids wreak havoc. At one point Harrison wrapped a transformer in thread and was dragging him around the house with carter following close behind. When Cory asks me how I get things done with kids around I always tell him I just do what I have to do. They want constant attention but I think it's good for mommy to take a more 'supervisory ' role once in awhile. And the bows are cute. Not that my daughter will wear them but at least I could pretend I have a hobby... For an hour anyway :)
