Grumpy Cooking Experience

You know how sometimes when you cook with kids, it's this magical bonding experience and prime teaching time? And sometimes, it's just one series of spills after another? We had one of the latter this morning.

Ellie spilled everything she touched today. Picture molasses and a quarter cup of water on my beautiful new hardwood floor. (I had a very hard time staying patient.) AND she kept trying to pack down the flour instead of spoon it gently into the cup. AND I discovered mealworms in my dry milk powder and had to throw it out and use substitutions instead and I don't know if the bread will turn out. AND my yeast is expired (I used it anyway).

I hope I get over my cooking grumpiness soon. We have a really nummy dinner planned for tonight.
