...I heard this come out of the mouth of my sassy seven year old daughter. When her grandmother visits it's always cookies and ice cream at every meal. I'm totally surprised dessert hasn't been introduced at BREAKFAST for heaven's sake. So when Grandma leaves there are tears and complaints of NOT wanting to eat the meal I've prepared for the family. I am NOT a short order cook. I do NOT believe in asking the child what they'd like for dinner. They eat what we eat...end of story. We make it a habit of drinking ice water or tea without sugar. We limit the sugar and fat as much as possible. That being said...I'm not against cooking with a little fat every now and then, I am, afterall from Oklahoma. But the recent whines had become too much.
Finally one night at dinner, Fiance Chad told the "little" that we could eliminate meat for an entire week. Chad is the son of a cattle rancher and loves beef, it's what's for dinner after all. Han loves meat too....loves it.
So on night TWO of "No Meat" week...she asks "Is this what they eat in prison?"
Wish us luck...we have two more nights of this.
