...that is the response my little comedian is giving when everyone (and I mean everyone) asks him 'what happened?'
Then, he rolls into laughter, and says "they were huge, but now they're in the hospital!"
:o)
A little levity always helps when you can't see from one eye ......
He is much better ... the pain is far less, the swelling is slightly less, and most importantly, his spirits are high. He still is swollen shut, but the size of the swelling is less, and that makes it appear much better. He slept well, and said he feels "good enough to play outside all day, mommy". :o )
Right now, at this moment, he is rollerblading, after completing a 9 inning baseball game with daddy out front. And last night, he insisted on going to the rink to watch his team have practice, but couldn't resist the temptation to *be in it*, so he went out on the ice, no pads, just helmet, and skates, to skate. He was very happy to be there with his friends. And coach, fabulous, wonderful, amazing, coach J made him feel so good.
Really, he feels much better. Kids are so resilient, aren't they?! Thank goodness .....
It's me that feels awful. Every time I look at him, I have to give him a hug .... he looks so ...different. My poor babe .... I took a picture, of course, and I'll post once I have it.
So, thanks for the check in, girls, you rock! :o)
And Fransie ... oh yes, the peanut butter kiss cookies .... delicious! Here's the recipe:
Heat oven to 375*
Beat together 1/2 Cup shortening, 3/4 cup peanut butter in large bowl until well blended
Add 1/3 cup granulated sugar, and 1/3 cup brown sugar, beat until fluffy
Add 1 egg, 2 Tablespoons milk, and a teaspoon of vanilla, beat well
In separate bowl stir together 1 1/2 cup flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and half teaspoon salt. Add gradually to peanut butter mixture, and beat well.
Shape your dough into 1 inch balls, and roll in small pile of granulated sugar in new bowl to coat exterior of balls.
Bake 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned. Take out of oven
Immediately press Hershey's chocolate kisses in center of each cookie. Cookie will crack around the edges.
Remove from hot pan, and cool completely on wire rack.
Makes 4 dozen.
The kids love pressing the kisses, and they always love to stir ingredients with me.
So, when do I get the banana frosting recipe from your cupcakes last weekend?
;-)
Have a great Saturday .....

ROTFL, Karin! What a character he is!
Glad to read he's feeling better and back in the game, so to speak. ;)
I can do that, if you tell me what 'shortening' is :D
And the bananafrosting... dude, what am I martha Stewart? It's from a package :p. But, I'll be very glad to send you some.
LOL at C's reply. So glad to see he's getting better!
hey girls .... Fransie - shortening is Crisco here, basically lard, heavy butter. I think you can use butter, actually.
Dude, yes, you are Betty Crocker! :O)
Bonnie, Fridays always work for me ... 'cept this one ... :O( I am making Shamrock shakes in K's class in the AM, with Sean, and then she and I have a haircut, then Cam has hockey that afternoon ... kind of a busy one. But, let's plan one ... I'll email ya!

Betty is the queen of baking, dear .... and that, my friend, is a true compliment!
