I'm not Martha

I don't want to give away any trader secrets and go to jail, but if you have stock in Little Debbie you might want to drop them. We are going Little Debbie free. That's right we are going to try and eat a little healthier. Meaning I am trying to not have the kids eat so many artificial things. So I am going to bake them cookies and brownies, cupcakes, and things like that for snacks. Its only a small step but I think its important to at least try. And homemade stuff always tastes so much better. Also really what else do I have to do? I mean this is my job so I need to do it to the best of my ability. So I am collecting my recipes and making a list and next week commences my new baking phase. We'll see how long it lasts. I am known to go off on these things and lose interest very fast. But I hope I don't since this is something I am doing for the kids. Well I better make this short. Its teacher appreciation week and I have to go shop for teacher gifts, clean the house and take Taylor's class to lunch so her teacher can have a lunch to herself. Woohoo! I can't wait. On Wednesday I take Kyle's class. What's shitty is I am the only mom for both classes who stepped up and said I would. What the heck are these people doing all day? I know there are other stay at home moms in their classes. I bet the kids didn't give them the notes. I know my kids are rather bad about that sometimes. Well I am off to the salt mines for the day. Wish me luck I am going to be responsible for twenty something kids!
