So, as you can tell it was a busy weekend. We had Raif's 1st birthday party with 71 people at our house followed by Grandma Pat's 94th birthday party at my mom and dad's house. We had house guests, my mom and dad had house guests, etc, etc. Needless to say, it was a busy weekend. So, Monday rolls around and I'm out of STRAWBERRY Jelly for Bailey's preschool lunch. I search in desperation in the pantry and can only find figgy jelly. I slip it into her princess school lunch bag and lone behold when I pick her up we have a sandwich that has not had even a bite taken out of it. I asked her about it and she said she does not LIKE the jelly. Tuesday morning was also crazy. Bowling in the morning (not a fun day, I'll explain in a later post), lunch with my cousin and her daughter, followed by Raif's nap and Bailey's dance class. At lunch, I was sitting there eating and thought to myself, I am not going to have enough time to go to the market. As I sit there thinking about this, I see the GOLDEN basket of jelly. And guess what, they have STRAWBERRY jelly!! So...
Which produced this:
And gave Bailey one scrumptious preschool lunch!
Side Note: Bailey loves having cookie cutter sandwiches. She will not eat the crust, which neither did I when I was little and now I love the crust. So, why bother right now? If I don't use cookie cutters I cut them into shapes and she has to tell me which shapes she ate after school. It's so much fun for her to eat her lunch and...who wouldn't feel special if their mom took the time to cut their sandwiches into fun shapes?
Hope this gives you a good laugh on how desperate a mom can become!!!
P.S. The waitress was tipped very well, I think I somehow felt guilty.
