Applesauce play-doh = a mistake

So remember how I was trying to come up with a baby-friendly edible play-doh? I thought if I mixed enough powdered sugar and powdered milk into applesauce, that would do the trick. So I mixed about 3 cups of powdered milk and a whole pound of powdered sugar into HALF A CAN of applesauce.

I also killed the motor on my failing hand mixer (maybe a stand mixer is in my future?!?!)

Just so you know...

Applesauce does not work.


Ok, it's a little gloppy, but it might be ok, right??


Juno was excited to smush it up...
And so were Tempe and Helena...
The problem came a few minutes later. This "play-doh" really had the consistency more of say, radioactive slime, and after a few minutes of very very very messy play, it started hardening on their hands.
They all started to freak out.
So I spent half an hour scraping it off their skin and then chiseling it off the counter, bowl, high chair tray, and trashcan.
Fail.
