In full Mommie mode today. Apparently, the State doesn't like when you miss the 15 and 18 month checkups with the doctor because they send notices in the mail. So Drew has a Doctor's appointment for some shots (Joy) 🥴This full-time working has me off my home game a little more than I would like.
.
Clark has a dental appointment and now so does Drew 😩 I know he is going to give them the full Drew and not act right. *I'm writing this at the Dentist Office.
.
And Clark doesn't have something white on his face, the mirror is just dirty 🤷🏾‍♀️

Ya Girl has taught herself how to make chocolate covered pretzel rods! The best part is that it's super easy and cheap. I got the pretzel rods from @heb for about $2 and I bought the candy melts from @hobbylobby for $1.99 each (make sure you google the Hobby Lobby 40% off coupon before you check out). My family doesn't like the sticks totally dipped in chocolate, so I drizzled the candy melts on the pretzels with squirt bottles that I got from Walmart. A quick and easy treat 😝

Yup, I just upgraded this @realduncanhines Coconut Supreme cake to a Pina Colada cake with FRESH whipped cream icing mixed by ME! I'm so proud. When I made macaroons over the Christmas break, and Mark saw that buttercream icing was literally butter and powdered sugar...He said, don't put that icing on my birthday cake (with a stank face) and requested whipped cream icing.

Binge watching Kids Baking Championships for the last couple of days helped me to realize that I had plenty of piping tips that I've never tried. And boom, flower like decor on top of the cake...😝 I'm taking cake orders.

Oh yea, ya'll like me 😝 Well, ya'll like me and my crazy little family. Babbbyyy, we attempted to cook a little more in 2019 and even mastered 2 or 3 things. I can make box cup cakes taste like they are straight from a bakery, your girl can make macarons and buttercream from scratch and my family has started to actually request meals for me to make. AND...Lets not forget about the launching of @strugglecooksunite 🤗 Oh yeah, let's kick 2020's butt!

20 Minute Gumbo Success thanks to this gumbo base

20 Minute Gumbo Success thanks to this gumbo base I picked up at @krogerco for under $7. I added shrimp, 1 drained canned chicken, sausage and salt. Dinner was bomb and I looked like I knew what I was doing 😝 I also said, "All right guys" 25 times 🤣 I'm not a professional and never claimed to be. **Drew is in a yelling and screaming phase. Nothing is wrong with him, he's just doing it to see my reaction because he thinks its funny.
