Back & hit the ground runnin'.......

That's what K. always says we you gotta get down to business "I gotta hit the ground runnin". Well that sums up my here & now.....
I got home around 3 a.m. from Vegas & am totally exhausted but it was well worth it! I then officially earned the "Bad Mom of the Year" award.... I let D. skip school to be home with me today (read: my ass was too exhausted to have her at school by 8am) :) And now I am trying to get in the groove.....I have to unpack, love on my kids, do laundry, love on my kids, make some phone calls, love on my.....okay you get the picture. But the big event today is making......drumroll, please....gourmet popcorn balls for D.'s school for tomorrow. Uhm...who's freakin' brilliant idea was that???? Oh, yeah...mine, before I went to Vegas. You know, when you are in pre-vacation mode & you think you are invinsible! Like when you think you can drink your weight in alcoholic foo-foo drinks in just 3 days in Sin City...okay, I digress......
Anyway, last week when I was in supermom/over achiever mode, I promised D. we would make this fabulous recipe. Gourmet popcorn balls, dipped in choclate & sprinkles for her whole class. Plus you gotta make several extras for other people who are at the class party.....so we are looking at about 40 popcorn balls. No big deal for a girl who is practically a pro......I mean, in the past I've made loads.....let me count how many........well.......uhm, does eating a popcorn ball count????? You guessed it...I haven't made a single one. So here's to the big adventure.......more later.

I promise once I finish the above, I'll post some Vegas pics & give you all the scoop! And please don't envy me for the fab photo above.....you know, the "tired, dumpy & terrified of making a gooey mess" look is soooooo chic right now........
