I am done with blogging FOREVER.

April Fools!

(Oh come on, you know me. I could never be done with blogging forever.)

Besides, if it weren’t for my blogging, I wouldn’t have this resource on hand: A Topsy-Turvy Meal for April Fool’s Day. Given that it’s been six years since I made it, I have time to recover from all that work and am fool enough (ha) to want to make this meal again.

It’s not that bad, really. I just need to run to the store real quick because I’m the kind of mom that gets same-day inspirations.

Here is a link to what you need: These burgers and fries pack April Fools’ Day surprise. Basically, you need a box of cake mix, a box of brownie mix and lots & lots of tuna cans. I’m going to just dump the tuna into a tupperware because of course I haven’t been saving the cans.

Have a great day, everyone! Trust me, you don’t have to go all out to make it memorable for your kids. They just want you to make it special.

    I don't think I'll be getting sprayed in the face with water today. šŸ™‚ Both those young bucks of mine have graduated college and are now working men who don't even live here anymore. It was our most memorable April Fool's stunt. šŸ™‚

    I'm not entirely sure what it says about us, but we just don't do April Fools.

    My daughter said years ago, "I love you guys too much to play a mean joke on you."

    Our April Fools happened on us…not the fun kind — a cabinet shelf full of Pyrex just fell and dumped its contents, out of no where, and the brand newly-made bowl of yogurt slipped out of the fridge onto the floor. We don't need to make mischief in our house. I hope your treats turned out. It SOUNDS fun, in theory. šŸ˜‰

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♄
