Ingredients:
1 school holiday
1 demanding 2-year-old
1 non-sharing 6-year-old
1 non-napping 1-year-old
28 fights over diecast cars
576 episodes of TiVo'd cartoons
Instructions:
Place all three children in living room.  Turn on TiVo.  Place 1-year-old in play-yard for own protection.  Enjoy the 3 quiet minutes following to sew.  Break up 28 fights over diecast cars.  Calm down 28 temper tantrums.  Attempt to put 1-year-old down for nap.  After 10 minutes, realize that 1-year-old is not going to sleep.  Return to play-yard.
Now, decide that maybe children will do better at Barnes and Noble than at home.  Dress children and self.  Get into minivan.  Crank the portable DVD players.  Say a quick prayer.  Drive to Barnes and Noble with the knowledge that at least a Coffee Frappuccino awaits.
