Not feeling the Fall Back...

I forgot we had to turn the clocks back last night. I thought it was strange that DD wanted to wake up an hour early until Dave reminded me. Although we get that extra hour of sleep, I'm not too fond of Daylight Savings -- it just means the days will be darker earlier. I love when it's still bright outside at 7pm in the summer.

BB decided to cry her lungs out last night and I was so relieved when Dave came home and took over. I decided to make the lemon curd and raspberry tarts I saw on an episode of Take Home Chef. My previous attempt to make the pastry shells was a disaster. The pastries turned into monsters and puffed up too much in the middle. The same thing happened this time (even though I meticulously buttered each layer of filo) but I caught them halfway through the bake time and pushed them down a bit. Let me just say that I don't want to make these again. Too much work. I waited too long to make them and my poor (and expensive) raspberries went bad. I used strawberries in place, but they weren't the same. The lemon curd tasted great, but the recipe overall was just a waste of my time.

The other day I stopped by Atrium mall and popped into Babystyle. I was so excited to see that they were carrying Giddy Giddy hairclips. I have been eyeing these for months but didn't really feel like paying S&H on them -- they run at $8 a pop and are the tiniest things. I got BB two and they are just so cute! I love that they actually stay on and are not irritable. I don't think BB even notices them.

Now NOBODY will ask if she's a boy ever again!
I think...
