Thanks Women's Day...

...you make me a better mom. Thanks to your jam packed Halloween issue, my kids think I'm pretty cool. Which is good, because before tonight, they didn't.

When this months issue came in the mail, I set it on the counter and thought, "what mom has time for this??" Tyler came home and snatched up the issue, poured through the pages and ripped out all the cool Halloween treats and asked, "Mom, why don't we ever make fun treats like these?" What do you say to that?? Uh, because I'm lame and hate messes and cooking with my kids is another word for mess. So I did what any good mother does and lied. I said, "Oooh, those look pretty neat. I don't think I've seen things this fun before. Would you like to try and make some this month?" Of course he said yes and I tucked them away and thought I'd give some a try. So tonight, we had Spiderweb Pizzas. They were a hit and now I'm cool. Thanks Women's Day!

Looks awesome! I tried to make "mummy pizzas" the other day for Mo and Mase, but they didn't turn out as well as these!

I have been thinking about that spider web pizza ever since I saw it! I think I need to start subscribing to this magazine, too!

Oh, and will you tell Chris thanks for his comment? I responded on my comments section. What I said in response was obviously not as profound as what he wrote, but I do want him to know I appreciate it!
