Guess Which Moment of my Day...

Put me entirely over the edge today??
These are two batches of the same kind of cookie. While this batch was in the oven, Lucy threw a tantrum that involved lying on the floor screaming at inhuman pitch for inhuman lengths of time. I didn't hear the timer beep. Then the bishop called to tell me that mutual was canceled tonight and I had to call all my women. A Girl Scout mom beeped through to change her cookie order, and I started trying to download, "Pick a Bale of Cotton" from iTunes for my presentation on slave music in Lizzie's class tomorrow.

The cookies were in the oven for 45 minutes before I remembered them and pulled them out.

Dad, these might even be too brown for you.

Love it! Nothing more annoying than a batch of cookies you can never enjoy. Glad to know I'm not the only one.

Oh Amy! I always seem to burn one batch and under cook the other. The third batch usually ends up working out though!

My last batch often comes out overcooked too! I get lazy in the home stretch. I love the basement swings in the post below...great idea!

I am so glad someone else does this. Sometimes I think Tanner may not be the only one with attention challenges...(multi-tasking gone awry).

Hi Amy, What a day of challenges! And the cookies aren't even charcoals! I don't think there is such a thing as sucessful multi-tasking!
