Will Dr. Pepper Do?

I am not a big fan of mealtime. I just clean up one meal, then it is time to fix another. And the thinking about what to fix, the asking to know what people want, the checking to see if we have ingredients once a decision is made--all painful. Parley must sense this dread, because today, he made it quite easy.


Me: "Parley, what do you want for lunch today?"

Parley (wasting no time): "Pepsi and toast."

Yeah, me too.

jack loves diet coke. shhh. don't tell.

we share the same disdain for dinner planning. if it's not a quesadilla, spaghetti, nuggets, or corn dogs, then it's just too much work!!!

Change "toast" to "Saltines" and you have my lunch every day. Smart kid.

That made me want a Pepsi too. Its not too difficult to make me want a Pepsi, darn it. So, I'm having a Pepsi and a rice cake!
Aunt Liz taught Danny to say "Coke" when he was 10 mos. old because he always wanted a taste of her Coke at the swimming pool! :)
