The Baking Day

Sunday, December 23, 2007 Coventry, England

10:45am After making a list of supplies; Hilary, Lois, Lynette, and I head to Tesco. No one had any idea what we were in for. There were so many people you would think it was the day after Thanksgiving! Then you add buggies, plus baskets, plus push chairs, and children. The place was so crowded. The lines were so long that I had to stand in line with Lois and the pushchair while Lynette and Hilary finished shopping

11:38 am Flagged down Joe walking down the aisle that I am standing in line in. The crazy guy just came to pick up a little something for breakfast.

11:58am Lynette and Hilary rejoin me

11:59am Because Dad is meeting Liz for lunch, at least one of us has to head back to the house because Hilary has the only set of keys available to lock up. Lois and I start our way back. The pushchair has to stay behind.

12:14pm Arrive back at the house. My arms as so tired from carrying Lois. She may be only 7 months olds, but she is one solid child. If only I had some hips!

12:32pm Hilary and Lynette make it back to the house as well

1:05pm Baking begins: Sugar cookies, peanut butter balls, and chocolate bark
