Parenting after 35

FFFC

I broke down and cried today because my batch of cookies for my cookie contest tomorrow did not turn out.  Somehow the bad batch of cookies turned into I can't bake, which means I am a bad cook, which means I am a horrible wife and mother, which utlimately means I am a rotten human being.

Ugh... PMS.

Re: FFFC

  • I am sorry your cookies did not turn out.  But being a bad cook does not equate bad person.  Hugs, and I hope AF passes quickly!

  • If this is how we measure it, I must be a horrible person.

    AF sucks.

  • I think you're amazing for even having the energy and motivation to make cookies!  I haven't done any sort of real cooking since Noah was born.  If ability to cook determines what sort of mother and human being we are, I am really really horrible!!

  • Left Hug I don't understand why we as wives and moms beat ourselves up so much.

    My girls were laughing about how I burn everything and my DH cooks thinks perfectly this week.  That's OK because someday my precious grandchildren will be laughing at them.

    Hope you have a good weekend!

  • I have days like that and I don't even get PMS - don't hate, I still haven't gotten AF Stick out tongue

    Anyway, I'm sorry.

  • If it's any consolation, I no longer bake/fry/boil/prepare anything. The only thing I make is breastmilk. However, I failed to get the beby to latch on properly for the second time in the row. As a result, I have to EP again.

  • Much love, and I'm sure you are an excellent baker/cook/wife/mother/human being!

    What kind of cookies were they?   

    You are likely to be eaten by a grue. Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker image
