On the menu tonight- baking one million Pecan Tassies with only one 12 count muffin tin. I sent the kiddos around to the neighbors to borrow additional muffin tins, but we live in a neighborhood of middle aged self proclaimed bachelors. No muffin tins to be found and our Christmas budget is very stretched with honey home sick again today. This is going to be a very long night.
I took Baby Boy to get his haircut this afternoon. He is tired of his long long hair. I took him to the girl who does honey’s hair and I have finally figured out why she goes to this particular hairstylist. Don’t get me wrong she’s a good stylist but honey is adamant about seeing her. When she goes on vacation honey will wait weeks, getting ever more shaggy in the time this stylist is off work. Now I know why… She is gorgeous, drop dead. She looks so much like Brandi Carlile it’s kind of creepy. (remember… someday I’ll give tell you my own Brandi Carlile story) Even baby boy thought she was “hot”. Looks like I may be getting haircuts more often, but I am not sure how much shorter it can get. Ahhhhhhhhh my own personal reminder of a once eighteen, tomboyish, rock star-to- be.
I just pulled the first pan of tassies out of the oven- what a disaster! brown sugar and pecans stuck to every surface of the pan. I think I will have to break down and go grab some of the silicone pans that are supposedly stick-free. It’s amazing the things they make out of silicone these days :).
Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Everyone!
