Unknown Papi: You shouldn’t be doing that right now.

Unknown Mami: Doing what?

Unknown Papi: Making that.

Unknown Mami: Why?

Unknown Papi: Because you’re sick and don’t feel well. You should be resting.

But Rocky Road is exactly what I needed to be making. I have been feeling horrible the last few days with a cold that is kicking my butt and then my spirits took a beating when I found out my brother is up to his old B.S. All day I felt horrible and had to take care of two kids that aren’t feeling so great themselves. When Unknown Papi came home, I took some Tahitian vanilla marshmallows that a friend had brought us, some left over chocolate chips, and some pecans and made Rocky Road. Suddenly the day wasn’t half bad.

I wrote about some fun Latin American New Year’s traditions at CafeMom. Some you might want to incorporate into your life, others will just make you laugh.

Wishing you a very Happy New Year!

And now your Friday Fortune Cookie
