SKITTLE SCHEME

I got home from work today and sat down on the couch.  Little T came in from playing outside, and riding his bike.       I started talking to him and he was telling me about his day, and I kissed him on the forehead  because, I thought he needed it. :)  

I then said...."Wow....you taste salty...

think it's bath night???"  ;)

He came back with, "Oh...no, I was eating

 sour Skittles yesterday."  :)

Wow....just when you think you've heard it all.  :)

SHRIMP ALA 'T' :)

Tonight Big T made supper. It was VERY entertaining and also the first time he's ever cooked a whole meal alone.  (Yes..I stayed in the kitchen....and learned from the master and took care of the 'hot' things for him)  :)

 He first arranged the frozen shrimp 'just so' on the cookie sheet..."so they wouldn't touch each other"....loudly banged the butter off of the spoon into the bowl of corn and then salted it like a Japanese steak house chef (by clinking a spoon on the side of the salt shaker and making it 'ping' over and over).   Well...that was fun to watch.  :)

However...THEN he said...."We could try it 'old school' by baking the shrimp in the sun." ROFL....ummm....no. He needs supervision, obviously. :)

Then when he was done...before we could eat, we had to call him 

'Chef Tan-saki-man'....... :)

I think I'll hire him.  But he requires REALLY big tips....he's saving for a go-cart.   :)     

Great job, Big T.......how about tomorrow night too?  :)

P.S.  Now he's tired.....and he WANTS cookies....but is too tired to make them....hmmmm......time for the under-study cook to take over or will he step up and finish the job???   My bet is that his tummy will rule and he'll do it.  ;)

SWEET TEEN

Yesterday, Coco and I stopped at the convenience store closest to our house as we were running back home.  I bought my huge, Sweet Tea.....as usual...she didn't want anything or wasn't thirsty....then we headed to the house to grab something for a ballgame that I was asked to bring. 


I handed my tea to Coco and said.."Now don't drink that..." and smiled and ran in the house.  I went inside, gathered what I needed (it took a few minutes), and headed back out to the car. 


When I got back in, Coco handed me my big cup...I looked at it...shook it....held it up to my ear and said.  "Two drinks."  ;)  


"WHHHATT???  HOW did you KNOW that?????"   And she started laughing. 


Me:  "Because you have a Ninja Mom and I know ALL."   ;)

P.S.  Wonder if she'd like to play cards with me sometime???  ;)


Love you, Coco...you are SO much fun!!!  :)  Thank you for always laughing with me. 
Love, Mom
