Last week my kids had a play date at the same time. Before you get all jealous that I got the house to myself for a couple hours please understand that the play date was at my house. Somehow it wound up that I was going to have four 7-year-old kids running around my home at once. I wasn't really sure how that was going to pan out. I also had things that I had to do in life. Most importantly, I had to bake a dessert for a dinner I was going to do with some friends. We all know that dessert is the most important meal of the day.
The two friends came at about the same time. After that, I didn't see my kids for about an hour until they all got hungry for a snack. Each child was occupied with their respective friend. The house was unusually quiet. So I got my baking done. I made a pan of brookies: half brownies half cookies.
And the best part of the about the play date? I got to lick the beaters!
