1. Bake more for afterschool treats - I constantly run into the "healthy" snack bars and creative snacks for afterschool. Don't we all expect the "stay-home" mom to "bake".
2. Finish my chores BEFORE the kids get home from school.
3. Spread myself evenly if not equally between each of my kids classrooms.
4. Consistently read stories at bedtime - big kids too.
5. ETC. Few more but I will spare you....
So, as a disclaimer I don't put too much pressure on myself I try to remember my priorities and moderation but this is the time of year for me when I do a little re-evaluating. That being said I accompished my baking quota for the year (low expectations = all uphill and bonus points here on out). Below I made the Brownie Swirled Peanut Butter Oreo Cookies from this blog and had them ready for the kids when they got home. With a little prodding and self publicizing from me they were very excited.
Oh Yeah...they were yummy and made a ton!
