Cloud Dough

Made some cloud dough today.  It's just flour and oil in a 8:1 ratio.  I only did half because I didn't have enough oil.  I also didn't have baby oil which is what most recipes call for so I just used vegetable oil, just fine with me since I didn't want to eat that stuff.  I added some lavender essential oil since that's about all I have that smells really good to me and decided to throw in some nutmeg because back when I made the hot/cold rice sock I read somewhere that nutmeg and lavender smell nice together.  I honestly couldn't smell it though.

The way I did this was quite messy.  I just set her on the kitchen floor with a bowl some little cups and a cookie sheet.  She ended up spilling it everywhere and was sitting in it.  Then she thought it was really funny to come up and put hand prints on my black pants.  So the planning aspect wasn't the greatest.  This is definitely something to put in a shallow tub on a table with a large mat underneath. 

She made up for the pant marks though she said," Thank you for making this Mommy, I love when yo make me things and read books to me and play with me."

I think she like being a flour monster just as much as playing in it
Such a poser
