The weekend is almost here and I couldn’t be happier! It seems like this week is dragging and I can’t wait to spend some time with the boy, celebrate Mother’s Day and see Hairspray with my Mom!
I meant to blog at lunch yesterday but instead Dad asked to do lunch. Of course I choose my Dad! I had intended to blog when I got home but I got asked to make some desserts for the a company thing on Saturday. Since I am not attending the community event (my schedule has changed like 5 times and I didn’t want to commit if I’m still not 100% sure what time everything will happen tomorrow) I had to bake them last night.
I’ll share my first EPIC fail as Caitlin would say. I desperately wanted to make these Fluffernutter Cookies from Picky Palate. They only had 3 ingredients and seemed simple enough. WRONG!!! I could not have failed more with these cookies. Since mine failed, I don’t want to give you what should be a good recipe. I just don’t know what I did wrong!

I work close to a Border’s bookstore and sometimes with my Dad or Lauren. Around my birthday, Dad went and got me a late birthday present we saw one of my favorite books at the checkout. After telling the hubs how much I loved the book I finally went back with Lauren to get it. Here’s some of my favorite parts of the book “The Monster at the End of the Book”:
Grover then proceeds to try and keep you from turning the pages (i.e. bricks, ropes, pleading) only to find this surprise at the end of the book:
I didn’t remember this next page from reading it as a child but giggled when I found it while having “story time” with the hubs. I wanted to show him why I loved this book so much! And then I found this:
More on my epic baking failure tonight. (I know you are excited!)
Did you ever read this book? What was your favorite book as a child?
