My Little Green Angel

This morning was unique in that I was cooking.  Cooking is generally my husbands responsibility.  However, today I was cooking to bring tacos to my moms group Potluck.  My daughter was hanging out in the kitchen doing her thing.  Playing, drinking talking (babbling).  I went down the hall to the other end of the house to get something...... then from out of know where... she comes in crying and holding her hands out.  They were green.  I was completely flabbergasted.  Not your light, I got a snotty nose green.  Green like Shrek.  Bright green EVERYWHERE.  Her hands, her shirt, her shoes, her legs, in that cute little chunky fold on her thigh.  After reassuring her that it wasn't gangrene, I followed the green foot prints back to the scene of the crime.  Apparently she wanted to help me cook.  She located the spice rack in the cabinet and with a certain amount of precision opened the green food coloring.  Green food coloring was everywhere.  All I can say is thank God for Tile and hard wood.  Clean up wasn't horrible with the use of Windex.  My floors are clean now, she's still stained.  I'm now considering the possibility of using windex as a body cleanser.  Note to self (as I type this with green fingers) these are the days....... :)

Hahaha! That is so funny!  Coming from a mom who has been there!  Now I get why she was green at the park today!

As I was reading this, I could not figure out what she could have gotten into.  But I have food coloring, too... and WOW...that stuff is unbelievable!  What a little crafty girl you have there. 

And don't think it escaped me that your husband does all the cooking.  You just made several NW moms very jealous, including ME!!  :)

Yeah, that's why I had a lil' green monster today at the park.  Said with love!  I wanted to tell everyone.... Don't you judge me!  tee hee!! Not like they would.  I just like that line! 

I know I am very lucky top have my husband cook.  I don't take it for granted.  I wish my husband had free time, I would love to lend him to other moms to cook!
