Cupcakes in Kindergarten

Here is Sierra opening a birthday gift before school on Monday morning. Kaia likes to be the center of attention these days.
Sierra talked me into taking cupcakes into her class. I cleared it with her teacher and Kaia and I worked on them while Sie was in school. I thought cool whip frosting would be a good idea. The online recipe told me to add a cup of milk. This turned my frosting into soup. I tried to salvage it by adding more powdered sugar. Didn't work. Pretty soon I just dumped my whole container of sugar in there. Still didn't work. But the kids ate 'em and didn't complain. The only trouble was talking with Sierra's teacher, Mrs. Muller. When we arrived, the class was out at recess so we had about 10 minutes to chat with Mrs. Muller. I told her about my frosting disaster and she told me she was a very good cook and that she didn't use recipes. She said there are two kinds of cooks, ones who do use recipes and ones who don't. Needless to say I felt like an idiot and left feeling like I've never cooked anything right in my life.
