Science FAIL, Gingers, and Awesome Little Fingers.
1. So. Single Ladies by Beyonce. Let me tell you how this went.
I put my laptop on the table, pulled up the video on YouTube and announced to my niece and nephew that it was time to dance. I hit play.
And they were thoroughly unimpressed.
They stood there and stared at Beyonce dancing and then looked at me.
My niece said, “I don’t want to listen to this anymore.”
My nephew said, “Twinkle twinkle!”
Science FAIL.
2. Last night I ate gingersnaps before bed. And in my dreams, I fell in love with a ginger.
BigLittleWolf asked me what would happen if I ate chocolate chip cookies before bed. So I ran to the corner and got these.
Will let you know how it turns out in the morning.
UPDATE – 8:00 A.M. I don’t remember my dreams, if I had any. Clearly, chocolate chip cookies wipe your memory or prevent dream formation.
3. As you know, I like to take pictures of food. I may have left out the fantastic loaf of French bread and the french fries I enjoyed. My niece made them for me. They were delicious and I enjoyed them with a juice box. And I may have had an apron on at the time. A very. Tiny. Apron.
Man, check out those little fingers and that cute dress. Just looking at that picture makes me laugh. She’s a TINY PERSON.

1. Yep…when we want kids to ‘perform’ they never do.
2. Can’t wait to see who you dream about…
3. I love little baby/toddler hands!

What a crack up. Are those kids too good for Beyonce or what?
I was fed fake cups of tea last weekend, and my hubby had a plastic chicken drumstick. Very nutritious and zero calories!
Kids crack me up when they’re not mine.

I don’t know that science failed. I think your niece and nephew just have more sophisticated tastes.

Aw! RE’s a big softie when it comes to little people.
I like that about you.

Come on RE! You know those are your hands and you know what they say about small hands!

I love that you love your tiny people, RE. It’s like a softer side to my super crunchy cookie.

1. Laughed Out Loud.
2. As a (potentially) Little Person, may I ask: are Tiny People smaller?
3. Where is the legislation to protect the Vertically Challenged?
4. Please let me know if anything further develops from the Chocolate Chip Cookie Experiment.
5. Dreams of dalmations come to mind.
6. Trying giving the cookies to LF at bedtime.

I had pineapple upside-down cake and in my dreams, I was hooking up with Padma from Top Chef. The interesting part was that DURING the hook-up, I was thinking, “I can’t wait to tell RE about this!!!!” I’m not sure where I got any of that.

1. BUMMER. Maybe try Riverdance next time…or Swan Lake???
2. Well duh. They are “store bought” chocolate chip cookies.
You need *real* cookies!!!
