Yup. I'm doing NaBloPoMo again. You lucky devils - that means an entry a day for the entire month of November. Try not to cry from sheer joy, really.

To start off the excitement - I'll try to paint a visual of last night's doings:

Me, the mommy, trying to teach Solei how to give kisses. This involves me squealing repeatedly "Gimme kisses!!" and smacking her on the lips.

Baby did not get the lesson. Baby laughed her brain off, opened her mouth wide and took the opportunity of mommy's close proximity to maul her face. She chewed on my eybrows, licked my eye, and kept ramming her tiny teeth-buds into my lip.

We'll get this kising thing down. Although the thought occured to me that I don't WANT her to get too good at kissing, if you knowwhudimean. But man, mommy wants a kiss, dagnabit!

*&^%&%$&^$^$&^$^$&^%&^%*&%&%&^%$&^%$

I'm teaching a group lesson today. I'm terrified, and I also have destroyed 2 different batches of cookies. One of them was storebought dough too. My lack of domestic skills is shocking, even for me.

(if you listen hard, you can hear Annie *tsk tsk*ing all the way from Colorado. And now do you hear me calling, to mock my lack of skills and to tell me the RIGHT recipie to try? Dang I love my friends)

The cookies are for the girls - I figured out how to ice a treble clef on them. Buuuut, I can't make decent cookies. I really, really want to not suck at this lesson. And the can't even get a batch of sugar cookies right. How can I manage to get 5 squirelly girls to not poke each other in the eye with their violin bows if I can't make unhard and/or burned cookies?

Hrm... well, I do have a masters in teaching violin. But who has a masters in making sugar cookies? Nobody. So why does the rest of the population not have sugar cookie deficiencies??

It's off to the store when baby wakes up. The store can't get this wrong two batches in a row, right?

Crap. If any of you have a chance, come make me cookies!!

SUPERCRACK promises. 29 days of better entries than this one:)
