Well, I've gone and done it again - if I keep this up I won't be allowed to babysit any more! Last night I was stuck with the grand kids - a great hardship - well, this week anyway because it's "turn off the TV" week. When I couldn't stand the whining and the "I'm bored" any longer it was off to the dog park we went with Max. I made sure the kids were dressed warmly but, I forgot about me. We were (I was) freezing after an hour but, I still had to drag the kids home.
Being the warm and loving grandmother that I am, I made us all hot chocolate - it was really just an excuse to use the mini (hand held) frother that my daughter got for Christmas - it has something to do with specialty coffees and whipping milk. The evening ended well.
The problem arose this morning when my son-in-law discovered the frother submerged in water in the kitchen sink. I guess I wasn't thinking and just dropped it into the sink to soak - as if it was spoon. Glenn took the batteries out and has taken it apart to let it dry - hopefully (but, he doesn't hold out much hope) it will work again - otherwise I'll have to buy them a new one. It was a classic "senior moment" and it may turn out to be an expensive one.
I must apologize to all my friends who were so disappointed that I didn't have a "turkey" story after this last holiday weekend. I am sorry to have to admit that I didn't cook one this Easter - I certainly didn't cook a ham either (hate ham) - I didn't cook at all!! I had a great time, the whole family was together and I didn't make any of them sick.
Keeping you in stitches,
Margaret & Debbi
