Day 21 - Food for thought

Food seems to be a constant issue here. Everyone wants something "good" to eat. There is "'never anything good to eat around here". The kids fight over the last good thing to eat. "When are we going to eat?", I hear all the time. We spend time baking and decorating our food creations to eat. Really, we do more than just eat.

Sometimes, we go out to eat. Sometimes, we order take-out food to eat. Sometimes, we go to the store and buy more stuff to eat.
Once we played the rhyming game in the van using the word 'eat'. Neat, heat, feet, seat, sheet, skeet, beet, meat, sweet, treat.. it just made them want something to eat.

It isn't always junk food. We eat healthy crap too. Like the fresh cantaloupe we had tonight.


Yummy! Well, fresh cantaloupe that 3 of us had. Two of us are afraid of orange food or something.

And we had this delicious corn the other night! Yummy and super cheap at 10 ears for $1.00.
Actually, 4 of us enjoyed the corn and one of us thinks yellow, bumpy food is of the devil.



So just to balance things out and make sure everyone had something to eat..we made microwave SMORES today! Super yummy, gooey goodness! No one is afraid of brown & white melted slime on a tan crispy cracker.
