K.K. thinks it is so funny to ask people to spell i cup!

Ok, well don’t laugh a lot. Tj has a science project due tomorrow and I kinda forgot. So we pull out the list of projects you can choose from and we decided to do chocolate chip cookies. Please keep in mind that I can not make chocolate chip cookies to save my life. I can make sweet potato pie, chocolate pecan pie, cheesecake, all that good stuff. My husband is the cookie maker. Anyways, we were going to make 2 batches. One without flour and one with all the ingredients. The first batch came out horrible! It was all liquid like and yucky. Ok, so we decide to make a batch without granulated sugar. Turns out I didn’t add the right amount of flour. The recipe called for 1 1/2 cup but we only added 1/2 cup. Those came out like this.Photobucket

So then we make a batch with the correct ingredients and it came out like this!

I asked Jazz to pose with the cookies so you could see how thin the second batch came out.

I then asked Jazz to pose with the third batch. I didn’t like the picture so I looked down to adjust my camera. When I looked up to take another picture there was no cookie but this was the look on her face.

S6300881 she says they might not look good but they sure do taste good! I plan on writing a note to Tj’s teacher. I don’t want him to get a bad grade because I don’t know how to bake cookies. I feel bad but I really did try.

Update: The kids at school really liked the cookies with no sugar in them! Go figure.

Ok, we have had Wii Fit for 5 days and we love it! I even got my husband to try it out. He is a little mad at the Wii right now because he went fishing this morning and fell twice. He didn’t get hurt so it’s ok to laugh. He blames the Wii. He fell because Wii Fit told him his center of balance is off! How funny is that?
I thought it would fun to share some pics of our experience with Wii Fit. You will notice we play games the way there are meant to be played, on a projector screen. It makes playing Wii so much fun. Maybe I will find other players who would like to comment on their progress on Wii Fit. I wonder if everyone’s center of balance is off.
Please excuse my messy house, we have been busy playing Wii and just for the record I do comb K.K’s hair, she was playing in it earlier. lol

Doesn’t it look fun? I will be adding more pics later of our scores, we have been doing really good! I did the hula hoop today and got 292 spins!! When I started I was only able to do 68!!

A week or so ago I wrote a post about my new favorite popcorn,Orville Redenbacher’s Buttery Salt and Cracked Pepper. Well I am very happy that I came across a popcorn giveaway while Entrecard dropping. The Healthy Moms are having a Orville Redenbacher Healthy Snack Giveaway. They are giving away 2 popcorn bowls and popcorn and ten sample packs to lucky winners. One of the giveaway rules is to answer a question on your blog from the list posted at The Healthy Moms. The question I chose is “When do you enjoy popcorn”? Well I can honestly say popcorn is my number one snack choice. It is a quick snack that I eat a lot of. I eat it when I am surfing the web, watching a movie with the kids during movie night and as a late night snack. If you read my earlier post you will see that I didn’t even know the Orville Rendenbacher popcorn I was eating was healthy!! It tastes just like regular popcorn.
If you are interested in this giveaway head on over to The Healthy Moms to read the rules and enter before June 1st. Good luck!!
