Guest guest Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Dinner was great, I made bacon-wrapped chicken thighs and Yorkshire pudding. But that isn't want I want to brag about. When Robbin was done, he pretty much cleaned his plate and declared he was stuffed. # minutes later he was asking about dessert (I made brownies last evening)(frosted brownies!) I told him well, if you are so stuffed how can you eat dessert? He said oh well he might have room for just a little more. I told him to wait a little so his dinner can settle and I can finish mine. A few mins later he came back and said he was going to forego his dessert. Why? I queried... Because, he answered, he had snuck one (I knew about it already, of course) so he did not deserve it! So I told him that he DID, because he 'fessed up! He said, you mean I get a reward for telling the truth? Of Course, my son, of course...life lesson learned... There's the brag!   ~*~Hugs~*~ ~*~Akiba~*~ Pragmatic Visionary http://www.affiliates-natural-salt-lamps.com/pages/156.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
