I don't know about you, but right about now I'm in need of a perky post here at Kitchen Logic.
Yep. I need me an upper.
I'll use the kids.
Yesterday afternoon we stopped by Mom's house to pick up her Christmas check for the family. She gives us a check each year and designates so much for the kids and so much for Thor and me. I do the shopping for her.
I was trying to convince the kids that Thor and I get the most and they get the least. Damn smart kids and their steel trap brains. They knew the truth.
There goes what I really wanted.
Mom was thrilled to see the boys at her door. She grabbed them both and gave them a hug and a kiss. Practically slamming the door in my face.
She was so excited that she started showing us some of the Christmas gifts she'd bought for her great-granchildren.
"Look at this car! Isn't it cute? It has wheels and they turn and everything!"
After we got in the car, Thing 1 started chuckling. "The wheels on the car! They turn!" he said.
Man, how we love that whacky mother of mine. (no matter how much I fuss) She's providing her grandchildren with stories that will be shared long after she's gone.
And just the perky entry I need to leave hanging here.
