Oh self! You should really read directions...

or else you WILL be dealing with some overly cranky after school snackers. Who knew that the dough would take 30 minutes to rise! The same dough for tortillas only needs 5 minutes. Yikes!

Always use a timer...

when making cinnamon toast! It might be smart to stay in the same room with said toast or else you could forget that its in there and burn it  to smitherines! Oh well. I wonder if ducks like their toast blackened....I'll have to get back to you.

Fried eggs and toast es no bueno!

Dear little silly self,
It might be a good idea to refrain from cooking fried eggs and toast on the morning you'll be meeting with that personal trainer for your " free consultation ".  Because he will make you work out, you will think you're going to die. By the end of your little work out you will inevitably ask to be excuse in the middle of his " presentation " because you feel faint and the slight need to hurl.  You will return having nearly passed out and he will laugh! I'm just sayin' fried eggs and toast before any work out... no bueno!

Oh, my dear!

Dearest Self,
Where there is a Jojo
There is a JaeJae.
Where there is a JaeJae
There is food.
When you are approaching the room in which all three could possibly be hiding it might be a good idea to have a prayer already going in your mind. A prayer for mercy and grace, for there will be a great need for both. You may even consider having the vacuum already in tow because unfortunately if there's away for a JaeJae to get his 2 year old hands on some pixie sticks. It will happen. And, he will most definitely begin to tear into them and pour them out all over himself, the floor and his beloved Jojo. Jojo, of course will laugh at this and just watch. 

Thank you God for little boys, little messes...mercy and grace!
