Cookies Can Be Dangerous

When you have small kids!!

I made cookies today. Yummy chocolate chip cookies. As I am seeing my ingredients mix in my blender I hear it begin to THUNK, THUNK, THUNK! What? As I stop the machine and dig around in the mix to see what can be causing my machine to bump so harshly, I find a large, hard lump. What?

I toss it in the dry sink and see that it is PINK? What again?

Seriously!! Do you know what it was? Playdough. Hardened playdough! What else would it be?? laugh!

When our little ones play with playdough they sometimes help themselves to a little flour to dust the table. Apparently, on one of their trips to the flour bin they left a handful of playdough behind. Lovely.

I dug around and removed as much of the little lumps as I could find. I thought I got them all. I guess I didn't. I forgot about this situation and baked up my cookies. Later, I was enjoying a cookie with a glass of milk when I bit into something nasty....

Kids!
