As a friend of mine reminded me, yes it is time again for Pumpkin Spice Latte's at Starbucks. As we live in the
country we only can get Starbucks at our local Target store. So, after a LONG day of school, housework, more school, and more housework I ducked out after dinner with Liv and ran to Target. On the way to Target she told me about her day at school which is rare for her. Usually I have to grill her to get any information about her day. Well it seems that when she walked into school today she noticed that all the kids where running around making a mess of the school room. She said she just walked in and put her hands on her hips and started cleaning up
their mess. She said Sarah also helped clean up the mess and Ms. Shawnee was very impressed with the girls. I am just wondering if she is getting her OCD from her mom. I kid you not I sometimes find myself watching the kids eat impatiently waiting to wipe down the table around them. You would think my house was spotless, NOT!
Well back to Target, I happily shopped with Latte in hand (Olivia chose not to try one ;) ) I found summer T's on sale for 2.98 & 4.98.... Yeah!! We bought Ethan the Little Eisteins Rocket, which I should have known was going to cause me many headaches in the future. And we found a cute witches tub and striped stocking legs for candy that says "trick or treat, smell my feet" Olivia wants to be wonder woman or super woman for halloween this year. We have Colonial girl outfits from Williamsburg but the flash and glitter of the costume aisle is too much to resist.
Well on we went to the grocery aisle to pick up pumpkin and chocolate chips. Yes I am making pumpkin chocolate chip muffins for a bible study meeting in the morning. Thank you T for posting the recipe. Olivia found some loose candy corn on the candy aisle and was chowing down. I just looked at her amazed at where did I go wrong. I mean haven't I given her lectures every year on poisoned candy?? Ok, so again we started with the poisoned candy lecture, and then you know how candy corn can kind of make you choke from the after taste. Well she started to cough a little and I looked at her and said, "Was the candy poisoned?" Her eyes got big, and she said ,"I think" Well then I laughed and said I hope you don't die... Just kidding! Livvy has a cool sense of humor so she thought it was funny.
On, we went to the school supply aisle to pick up the 1,000th pack of crayons it seems like this year. Where they go~~beats me... I also bought Liv some safety scissors so she doesn't amputate anymore limbs with my sharp ones. Well that was our trip. Oh, and the lovebugs, well I have had them in my hair, mouth, the grill of my car, in my house, and stuck in my cleavage!!! What is the deal this season. They have been here for two weeks and in masses. If your not careful you will inhale one. I am sure one is floating in my pumpkin spice latte as we speak.
It was only a gash on the top of her foot, but it required an ace wrap to convince her to let ups put a band aid on it. It is hilarious to see her dad have to carry her from room to room. Long live the drama queen!
