" am amazing woman.... I can give birth to 2 beautiful children...... I can give birth to an 8lb 11oz breech baby naturally..... I can drive a manual car..... I can put up a tent...... I can cover 30 odd school books in contact without getting bubbles.... I can listen to a reader, iron shirts and cook tea all at the same time..... I can understand most aviation industry acronyms.... I can score U12s cricket......I can kill a spider if I have to.....I can organise a Horse Riding Camp for 40 Guides.....I can cross stitch......I can do handstands and cartwheels..... I can take pretty cool photos...... I can abseil...... I can waterski (sort of!)..... I know my phonetic alphabet....


But there is one thing I can not do.... one simple task that has rendered me a FAILURE as a mother, one simple need of a child that I can not meet.....

I can not cook Cocktail Franks with out them splitting!










And we're not talking one or 2 "Little Boys" that have lost their foreskin... we're talking a whole pot- more than a kilo of franks... all split and turned in on themselves. Meg's request for tea was Mac Cheese and Little hot dogs.... this is what I dished up! I am officially a failure as a mother. Imagine the horror and severe emotional scars my kids would have been left with had this been a party food I had served up in front of all their friends!!
Tom obviously realised my utter humiliation at my inability to reheat a simple processed meat (do they actually count as meat?) dish and was empathetic and kind hearted enough to suggest that "Maybe next time Mummy we should get the skin-free hot dogs".
