Really nice measuring cups, though. The ones Alton Brown uses. And his mixing bowls, too. And it still counts as a present even though I’m using mixing bowls more than she is these days. Right?
Yeah, you don’t need to tell me: those are crappy presents. Or to be more specific, they are great housewarming presents, crappy Mother’s Day presents. Luckily, she’s having too much fun with these to notice:
“Smile!”

On a related note, it’s one of my stay-at-home-dad life’s great joys that I get to hang out with so many mothers. Moms are the coolest — I learn more from you than a thousand how-to parenting books could ever teach.
Happy Mother’s Day, everyone!

@Aimee Greeblemonkey – Wow, you’re getting an eye wax, too? Cool!
And don’t sell me short — it wasn’t measuring spoons, it was measuring *cups*!
Allow me to join in and say Happy Mother’s Day to the mothers. I got my wife a bath robe that I’ll spend tomorrow trying to exchange or return. I think I would have had better luck with the cups.
Um, I won’t tell Working Mom what arrives for me today. [It rhymes with SchiSchmac.] But measuring spoons are really nice too.
