we interrupt this program…
My kids have gotten really into doing “commercials” about their food at meal time. Not sure where they came up with this idea but the last few nights at dinner have been quite entertaining.
Tonight’s menu: Homemade chicken nuggets with ketchup, butter and herb rice, peas, apple slices, and milk.
It went something like this:
GREEN PEAS: “The greenest you’ll find anywhere…HURRY! Eat them before they eat YOU!”
RED DELICIOUS APPLES: “Good for your health. They will even cure you of those awful pimples and zits!”
CHICKEN NUGGETS: “Homemade…even YOUR Mom can make them (I think this was a jab at my lack of cooking skills). Delicious…not spicy at all. And they cool off fast so you’ll never burn your tongue!”
HERB RICE: “Good, good, good. It is so healthy it cures cancer! And it’s free!”
KETCHUP: “The reddest you’ll find anywhere. It will even make you lose weight!”
WHITE MILK: “Delicious and it isn’t even sticky! Give it to your babies when they are born and you won’t waste time feeding them from your own body!”
WOW…now that’s a great meal, huh? Can your dinner say that?
I’ll take some weight-loss ketchup please! Can’t wait to see you guys.
Oh my! I just read this out loud to my husband and we are both still laughing. What a hoot!
That is so funny! I love the milk–give it to your baby so you won’t waste time feeding them from your own body! haha! And I’ll be over straight away to pick up some of that miraculous ketchup!!!!
LOVE IT!!!
Hilarious!! And A+ on a super healthy well rounded kid meal!
Absolutely hilarious! I need some of that magic weight loss ketchup too!
LOL funny!!!! My mother-in-law used to tell me to capture “those” moments, or I’d regret it. My son started playing piano by ear at age 2. I didn’t follow her instructions, and now he is 16. I DO regret it. I am glad that you were able to capture yours.
Hilarious! The milk comment totally takes the cake!
