Errors that occur when I'm complimenting people!

-
Saturday evening my mom made a delicious dinner which consisted of rigatoni, salad, watermelon, and biscuits. During dinner I decided that it would be polite to compliment my mom so I told her,"Hey, mom these biscuits are really good!" I thought I was being nice, but suddenly she looked upset and asked,"What about the rigatoni? All I did with the biscuits was put them in the oven!" I felt my face go crimson while I tried to make things better by saying,"Well I think all of it is good, especially your rigatoni. I just really liked the biscuits." Thankfully my siblings all came to my rescue and started complimenting the rigatoni also. It's not my fault that I love Pillsbury stuff, I would have taken credit for it!

    Listen to what Zach says about MY cooking:

    "I'm not insulting your cooking...I just don't want to eat it."

    Or...


    "I'm not saying it isn't good...I just don't like it."

    (He is one of the pickiest eaters I have ever met...aaaggghhh!)

    Okay, allow me to explain the weird dinner combo.

    See we usually have garlic bread when I make pasta. We didn't have anything I could fashion into any semblance of garlic bread. The backup plan is ALWAYS for Sunbum to make Bisquick Garlic Cheese Biscuits (You know like the ones you get at Red Lobster. Yum!) Buuuttt, nooooo, Sunbum and her sister were out playing all day with their homeschool group while I was here at home slaving over a hot stove.

    Papi bought a couple cans of biscuits on sale for .49 cents each. It's better than nothing, says I and apparently the highlight of the meal for Sunbum.

    When my brother was here (cuz now he's on a mission :) His only complement was "It's edible."

    The highest complement about my cooking dinner he ever gave me was, "It's almost edible."

    Muah ha ha ha!

    Don't worry, I got him back! >;)

    Sister Face: Picky eater? That is horrible! I might take Zach's lines to Girls Camp!

    Cameo: My family seems to like my cooking! What did you do?

    Brynn:Pillsbury is the best!! Of course it's not as good as my cooking. *cough*

What Happens When Daredevils Take On Crafts.......

For the past two weeks I've been eagerly awaiting my chance to learn how to quilt with the women in our Ward!!!! I went with Monkey this morning, and not only did I make a l ap quilt but I also found that I love q uilting !!!!! Because I was thinking so much about quilting I think it was hammered into my sub-conscience mind.........That's the only thing that can explain this dream, or I'm just weird. You choose. The Dream- In my dream I was running in the woods with a pile of fabric in one hand, and a sewing machine in the other. In the middle of a small clearing was a table, so I went up to the table and quickly laid out my stuff and started quilting. I was just a quarter of the way done when something crashed through the bushes behind me, one hand was still sewing while the other was hitting the creature that was trying to attack me. I kicked and hit the stuffing out of the thing, and it left battered and bruised with it's tail between it's legs. I just shook my...

Yes this is all true!

I have said many crazy things in my life. Most of them my mom has already blogged. So I'm going to blog this one. Besides it is my story. When we were at the pool Friday my mom wanted me to pull her around the pool. I did it, then I tried to pick her up in the water. I jokingly told her that I'll have to get married in a pool so my husband could carry me over the threshold. Please remember that I was joking. Well anyway this summer we spent a lot of it at the pool. So we saw the lifeguards frequently. One of them always had his Rubik cube with him, I thought it was interesting. So when I got home I said,"Mom I want an aerobics cube." Yes I thought it was an aerobics cube. I learned quickly that I was wrong. Because my mom started laughing and told me between laughs that its Rubik. Okay so now I get it. That's only a couple of the crazy things to have escaped my mind and come out of my mouth. So I don't feel alone on this matter please share some of the crazy ...

Be afraid, very afraid of the lama-eating casserole

Yesterday we finally finished working on the front yard! And I'm very excited about it. Before we finished Monkey, and I were talking while we weeded the big planter. Monkey was telling me about a girl in her class that can mimic all the characters on Napoleon Dynamite. I was laughing and quoting Tina's moment in the casserole spotlight until mom who was a couple feet away from me asked what I was talking about and I told her," Hello mom, you can't interrupt me while I'm talking about lama-eating casserole." I had meant to say casserole eating-lama, but whatever it didn't come out that way. As you can probably guess I was taken over by my laughing. After my laughter had died down, and I could see and talk clearly again my mom said to me,"If there was a lama-eating casserole you wouldn't be allowed in a petting zoo ." She said that they would tell me,"Sorry ma'am but that casserole is a danger to our lamas so you'll have to lea...
