CRCT? What CRCT?

Sooo.... the youngest child is starting the CRCT today.  Does she care?  Absolutely not.  I got up early this morning and made pancakes, eggs, and sausage for breakfast.  She ate all the pancakes, several bites of the eggs, and two bites of sausage... drank some juice and we hit the road.  The teacher has been practicing with them and preparing them for this test for weeks.  Has Ava mentioned it one time?  Nope.  The Satilla Elementary motto is "We're not scared, we're prepared."  I don't know about the second part, but they got the first part right... she's not scared, at all.  And I am thankful.  I'm glad she's not worried to death about this test.  I'm glad she's not losing sleep or appetite from stressing.  She will do her best - because she promised me she would - and that's good enough for me.  She says she's going to blow it out!  I believe her. 

For those of you who are wondering... she is having French Toast tomorrow... because that's what she wants.  =)

On another note... we made COOKIES last night!  Not just any cookies.... Fudge Turtle Cookies...  The original recipe for the dough didn't do like I wanted it to.  So, I looked up another chocolate cookie dough recipe and went at it.  I made up the chocolate dough, rolled it into balls, dipped the balls in pecans, and baked them.  When then came out of the oven, I unwrapped some little Rolos... (the individually wrapped ones in the bag), and I pressed them into the top so the chocolate and caramel would be all melty...  Sadly, I couldn't eat them.  I don't think they are on the Weight Watchers plan.  =)  However, Ava and Steven said they were good. 

Tomorrow is my second weigh-in for Weight Watchers.  Don't let that statement mislead you... I'm not going to the meetings.  This weigh-in will be conducted by me, on my mother's digital scale, at her house... with one person in attendance... me.  Well, Ava and Mama will be there, but they don't really count.  Hopefully, there will be some good results, but you'll read about it either way.  =)
