I go to school, my husband works and our daughter is two. We live in a (very) small apartment. The first day of last semester I jumped up to pack lunches and make breakfast before getting dressed. I am sure my pajamas were *ADORABLE*. I turned on the stove for eggs and started emptying the fridge of all necessary supplies. I soon found out I had turned on the wrong eye when I threw a new package of plastic-wrapped bologna onto it. Was it the crackling of pig fat or the acrid smoke that clued me in? Hard to say. But, what a pleasant surprise when I opened the door to air out the apartment in an attempt to quiet the screaming detector (like you ours was too high to reach) and had the opportunity to meet our new neighbors who were fully-dressed and leaving for work.

I often have weeks like that...nothing seems to go right in the kitchen (and quite often the bad luck can happen outside of the kitchen as well...) Your cookies look so good. I try to make my own granola too. Loved reading your post! Hilarious.

We eat really well, but the place is horrifically disorganized! I do make my own granola, at least once a week, and I make bread too, which always blows nonbakers away.

I mean, eating granola is one thing. Making your own? Well, that's just earthy-healthy-goodness right there. Even if the granola is going in cookies. I feel like I just healthy just by reading it.

I had a dream about a lasagna in the alley last night. It still makes me laugh out loud. I nearly burned down my husband's family's condo making peach cobbler that overflowed. He hit it with the fire extinguisher and... the mess! Dear Lord, I can't even think about it. The granola cookies look great. Too funny. I had a dream about a lasagna in the alley last night.
