Today was a good day! Here’s why…
Me: Thing 2, why did you put the egg in the water?
Thing 2: The recipe called for egg wash!

See, it doesn’t matter how bad of a day I could be having, it is moments like these that give me just enough comedic relief that it doesn’t even matter. These girls are true life givers!
A little backstory: The kids enjoy finding new recipes on the Alexa. Today’s recipe was a baked brie macaroni and cheese. Both girls fell in love (this doesn’t happen often), therefore, I headed to InstaCart to get the ingredients. I guess we are doing this!
Then, a month or so ago, Thing 2 found a recipe for a chocolate hazelnut icebox cake. This is super odd. The little one isn’t a huge fan of chocolate and certainly not a fan of hazelnut. I bought the mascarpone cheese and chocolate graham crackers a couple of weeks ago, may as well make it a new recipe night, right?
Thing 1 and Thing 2 were off to a great start helping. Then, in true Thing 2 fashion, she headed over to the couch to partake in anything, except helping. After a lot of hard work with Thing 1, dinner was a success! We will have to wait for tomorrow to try the dessert. Turns out, it needs a minimum of 6 hours of fridge time. Guess Friday Treat Day will be extra special!
