[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 175672, member: 1991"] "She [kt] actually told husband that he needed to stay home & take care of his family." Out of the mouths of babes... The kid is dead right. I strongly suggest you make this a girls' weekend. If you desperately need to sleep, get kt to do your makeup while you sleep. I've had times when for various reasons I was bedridden, and had to talk easy child & difficult child 1 through a complex recipe. They were both younger than kt at the time (it was well before I was pregnant with difficult child 3). It can be a very useful teaching exercise. easy child & difficult child 1 burnt the curry I was getting them to make, but it actually made it much better. You're supposed to fry the spices anyway, and that recipe ALWAYS sticks at that point. The kids were rushing around in a panic, didn't want to tell me, wanted to throw it away and start over - but when they did tell me I was able to reassure them and tell them to carry on, it would all be OK. They both learnt the value of planning ahead, and getting all your ingredients ready and lined up before you begin cooking. It's summer. Salads are good. And movies, and popcorn... Marg [/QUOTE]
