Life at Lothlorien

Never, ever, ever utter the phrase "Bundt cake" in front of two small children. It will ensue at least 15 minutes of hilarity in the back seat, then random giggles for days and days later as you hear from another room "butt cake! butt cake!"

I found a piece of paper with a 1-800 number written in my 7-year old's handwriting. "What is this for?" I asked. "That's because it's not available in stores," he started. "No, I mean what THING is it for?" "Oh, the pancake puff maker. But I am missing one of the numbers, so I have to watch and try to finish it." I think we need to go back to DVDs and stop watching commercial television. In the long run, it would probably be cheaper.

I went to get an Oreo the other day. We have the new easy open/easy seal package. All I found it the package was cookies. No cream filling, just the cookie part of the Oreos. I'm betting on the local chocoholic, CC, although she tries to smile and look innocent when I explain that you MUST eat the entire Oreo, not just the middle.
