Three exams, a quiz, two assignments, and the usual metric ton of reading has qualified next week for the title of Hell Week. So, naturally, I spent yesterday baking muffins, going to a birthday party and enjoying the thunderstorms. I did manage to get a few hours of studying in, and am working on it more today.
The muffins I made turned out deliciously. Check out the recipe, if you're interested. I love that they are called toddler muffins. I also made some awesome little pancakes this morning. Except I didn't really follow that recipe very well. I used sour cream instead of cottage cheese, since I didn't have cottage cheese, used 2 whole eggs instead of 4 egg whites because I didn't want to waste 4 yolks, and added some cinnamon. I think in the future I'll add some sugar too. They were quite good though, and incredibly easy. Then, when I went shopping today I found chicken cutlets stuffed with cheese and spinach on sale. That sounded too good to pass up, so I'll be cooking those tonight and eating them for the rest of the week.
On my way out to the store, I passed by a couple of kids playing their front yard. One of them yelled, "Can I hit you with a water balloon?" at me. I told him no, since I was just heading out, but if he saw me on the way home in about an hour he could. He just looked so excited about it and asked so nicely that I couldn't give him an absolute no. Sadly, or luckily, I didn't see him on my way home. I'm sure the water balloon was put to good use.

So sorry about hell week. But you will survive, as you always do. And thrive, even! I hope.
Your cooking, or baking experimentation sounds fun. I like the muffin recipe and you have inspired me to try some muffins and quick breads this week.
As for the water balloon.... what a shame he wasn't there when you came back! That would have made his day. You should get a water balloon and carry it with you when you go that way again. Just to make a little boy happy. :-)
