Now mix the butter and sugar very well, till it is white and frothy. In a seperate bowl mix well flour, milk powder,baking powder and soda . Mix well add vanilla and lastly add lemon juice.

Microwave this cake for 5 minutes on high. Cream together 1/2 cup butter and 1 cup of icing sugar. Once well blended add 2 tsp of strong coffee decoction and beat again. You can either cut the cake into 2 and spread the mixture and sandwich the two pieces again or spread all over the cake. Sieve the flour. Keep aside. Cream the butter and sugar very well. When the mixture is light and creamy, add the eggs, one at a time, beating each time thoroughly. If the mixture curdles while adding the eggs, add a little flour before adding the next egg.

I blindly didn’t care about much else, least of all stocking up on friends. It was like we stepped out of our apartment and were transplanted into a friendless, post-apocalyptic war zone. We decided to try to get out there again. We made an effort to make friends, but found that as adults, it was much harder than it used to be. It sucked, actually. See, when you’re part of a couple, there are numerous variables that need to fall into place in order for a friendship to work. For one, you’re dealing with four people’s schedules, instead of two; and four sets of people need to get on well in order for it to be worth anyone’s while. But by the grace of sweet baby Jesus, my husband’s good friend from college started dating someone — and she was awesome.

It only took hanging out with Lauren twice before she and I had inside jokes. We had things in common. Weird things. Neither of us ate dairy and we both liked our cookies frozen (weird, right,). Our significant others naturally got along — they’d been friends for years — so it couldn’t have worked out better. Before we knew it, we were hanging out weekly, taking trips, and going wedding dress shopping together (our wedding dates were only a few months apart). To this day, it was the easiest, most natural friendship I’ve ever made in my adult life. And although it was technically a relationship that was born out of convenience, that wasn’t the “thing” at all. We clicked; we were meant to be friends. Whenever I hear the C.S. Lewis quote, "Friendship is born at that moment when one man says to another: "What!

After he and I were done, we saved it to play with dinosaur toys later on. This slime is fun to make when teaching an insect, bug, or worm theme. We put all kinds of bug and worm toys into ours, but it would also be fun to add fake flowers to. I have to admit, I love glitter. This New Year’s Eve slime is super duper sparkly with it, and I love that! We had fun making the different versions and then combining them together for one beautiful mix of slimes. Scented sensory play is something the kiddos and I have always enjoyed. Candy Cane Slime smells wonderful, and you can leave out the scent and use it for Valentine’s Day too. This two color slime is just what you need for a preschool zoo theme! Turn some glitter slime into a monster making activity for the kids. We definitely had a blast with this one. We ended up using it for a monster-themed number activity too. So now I hope you have some fun ideas for how to make slime with kids!
