One morning, Emily was up early with the boys, so she chatted around (loudly, as toddlers do). I fed her some breakfast then went up to put her back to sleep. After getting her down, I went to make a new recipe a friend gave me for coconut muffins. I got the oven heated and almost had them mixed up and realized I was out of eggs. I just had seven of them, but my boys ate them for breakfast! So I ran up the hill to borrow some, and they were out as well. Bummer!! Well, I eventually got those muffins made at about 9 at night. They were delicious!!!! Not everyone liked them, as quite a few don't like coconut at our house, but that just left more for me! :)
Joy turned 18 last week!! 18!! As in I have an 18 year old! I can't believe it, and her grandma is thrilled she can vote! :) Me too. She wanted to have broccoli cheese soup for supper. Sounds great! So, I checked the recipe in the morning, before she headed into town for babysitting, to make sure I had all the ingredients. My brain must have still been fuzzy, as that evening, when I got home from picking up kids from history class, then doing some shoe shopping for Anna, and birthday shopping for Joy, I got ready to make supper and the cake and realized I was out of butter! So, I sent Jeffrey to the close gas station to get butter. I get started on both (soup and cake) and realize I'm out of chicken bullion!! So, Joy went this time and picked up the bullion. We didn't end up eating supper until 7:45!! Crazy! and expensive soup!! The soup did turn out delicious! Only one bowl was left for Joy, but we made another batch on Friday, so the rest of us could have some more. She spent the rest of the evening watching "Prince of Persia". The boys joined us after finishing Spanish homework with Jerry.

I don't like when that happens....went to the store to get cheese and just a few other things because the boys wanted grilled cheese and tomato soup. I have plenty of cheese (shredded and chunks) in the house just not the sandwich making kind and of course that is the one thing I forget. We are going to have them tonight but I am not running to the store again so we are having mozerella grilled cheese sandwiches. Sounds better to me anyway. I am always running out of something or not remembering something. Sometimes not even lists help me these days...
