We spent the day at a friend's house making forms for pinatas. Fifty of them. That's right, fifty pinatas. Wow, was it a lot of work. It took 5 adults and an assorted number of children all day to blow up balloons, rub on cornstarch paste, and layer countless sheets of paper to shape the pinata. These will be decorated next Tuesday by 40-something happy homeschoolers. Once the forms were all laid out in the sun to dry, we laughed because they reminded us of giant eggs.
It was a pleasant day spent with friends, but I think that we will all think twice from now on if we ever have a chance to hit a pinata. All that work...(sigh)...All that work...
