Being a kid is harder than we remember. Being a parent is harder than we expected. This is the official and only home of Momma Cusses on RU-vid. Author of Momma Cusses: A Field Guide to Responsive Parenting & Trying Not To Be the Reason Your Kids Need Therapy.
Once I told my girls we could have dinner for breakfast their eyes lit up and they were excited. I told them breakfast had no rules as long as it was nutritious and had protein. After that I never had many leftovers. They encouraged me to make favorites that they ate...for every meal...until it was effing gone. Most times I didn't even get a second bowl or plate. Be careful what you wish for.
I personally add 5 minutes to the cook time, but my oven isn't the greatest. So I think if you've got a steller oven it can be less but if you've got an older one like mine you might want to add a little more time (also add more time if you prefer crunchier food)
I have bad news. When you are relatively young with the 1st child and are a single parent for sev yrs(after divorcing so fast you left skid marks) then a remarriage and everybody is finally hunky dory...this stuff with your first DOES NOT STOP. my son us 39, runs his own kitchen in a casino and will text me from his work and say pick a number between 1 and 27. If I dont answer fast enough or ask first, why? He still gets pissy af. And its all in his ADHD attachment issues brain and has something to do with a choice HE wants to make but gets MY blind input about... IDK WHAT IT'S EVER ABOUT. so...to even the playing field me or my husband will periodically text or call at 4 am or 3 etc and just say "Get up and go pee". Which causes wakefulness AND the urge to get up and go pee! None of anything makes sense in our family so pick a color isnt a big deal here😊😊😊😊
You did do it Sis. You did it for you and you made it because you had love. You aren't a bad mom or failure for doing it different. Just having the same human experience we are all having.
I just start super early and stay away from the kitchen while the oven is hot and then take it out or make it super late when it’s cool or super early when it’s also cool
Actually you didn't "mom fail". Your child felt free to explore his curiosity and come to you with the results knowing he was safe to share with you his mistake. You didn't yell, belittle, or punish him. You didn't call him names or hold it over his head as a future permanent character flaw. You let him find out. Now he knows not to put things in his mouth, from the bathroom, he cannot recognize as food. Next time he will ask. Letting your child learn the hard way is not a failure.
I make what my family calls “💩 in a box” which is frozen chicken of some sort and I always just crank the toaster oven up 25 extra degrees and add 5 minutes, perfect every time😂😂 (for those concerned I’ve basically made my own cooking instructions from past experience and double checking the first few times with a meat thermometer)
This video was the first of this channel that I saw a long time ago and it was also the reason I subbed. I would love to see a part 2 of the shiny pants. Her just doing things around the house while her pants quack with every movement.
Ughhhh , dude, my husband will freak out if I don't pre-heat .... I keep telling him just add a couple minutes.... *eyeroll* unimportant but frustrating regardless 😅
So Toaster ovens take less than a minute to preheat, use less energy and come with timers that turn them off. They are an excellent hack for doing one pre-cooked freezer meal.
I keep hearing Canola Dip 😆 That sounds a little gross hehe... I can't decide if that would be just crackers dipped in oil, or little canola seeds you try to balance on a cracker and eat before they all fall off.
Of ffs. It’s so nauseatingly first world that she’s vexed about preheating an air fryer for what? 2 minutes? Here’s what to do: 1) have impulse for barely food. 2) retrieve barely food from freezer. 3) turn on air fryer while you open the package, and get your dish set up, get a napkin/paper towel. 4) cook barely food.
How many times do we do something stupid to ourselves and have to follow up with a mental or verbal "you're (I'm) okay"? We may have broken bones and torn skin, but we are alive and therefore "okay". If someone thinks this will f up their kids . They DONT have kids!
