Cakes, cookies and cooties.....

The little boys have their Fall Festival tomorrow night at school and boy do I have my work cut out for me tonight. Every year they do a cake walk (think musical chairs but with baked goods) Well, in a moment of sheer weakness (or stupidity) I signed up to bring a cake for Tanner's class. How DARE I not sign up to bring something for Tucker's class! SO, to make Tuck happy I am now baking a cake AND a dozen cookies. Nevermind the fact that I am still up to my elbows in cooties. I am actually excited to be baking. I LOVE baking and haven't done much of it since Jake's allergies were diagnosed. I felt bad baking deliciously aromatic goodies that Jake couldn't even sample. Well, he's been such a terd that I somehow don't feel so bad about in anymore. They even have prizes for most original, best design and all. Being the competitive person I am, I have to make something fabulous. That just adds to the stress level. Why do I insist on doing this to myself?
