We (you, me, garret, and my brother matt) put it in the garbage disposal thinking that we were oh soooo clever. Along comes your mom..."You guys are ALREADY finished with ALL of your oatmeal?" Then, she sticks her hand in that garbage disposal and finds the truth. We were in luck b/c she still had more oatmeal concotion in the fridge left over from a day or two before. So we STILL had to choke it down. I guess that it why you and your brother always wanted to come to OUR house:) Well, come-on all we had was non-sugary cereals (Cheerios, Rice Crispies, etc.) but at least they were grains and milk w/ nothing fishy. Oh the memories......I am with Marie. I feed my kids WHEAT bread with the crusts, whole wheat this and that. Fruit snacks are only a treat that they get IF they nap.

See, I remember a couple sleepovers at your house when we were kids. And the thing I remember most, even more than jumping from the tree onto the trampoline and then flying off the other side onto the rocks, was how you would set your alarm for early on Saturday morning so we could get up and start breakfast before your dad got to the kitchen. Otherwise, who knew what would be in those pancakes.<br /><br />Oh, and the first time I slept over your dad brought home little packages of almonds with dehydrated anchovies in them and then he followed us around all weekend daring us to eat more. It was terrible.<br /><br />I love your dad. Honest, I do. But I'm glad Jack gets more "traditional" cuisine in his formative years.melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17056612830764759328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3474631414338437142.post-17937689904385606562009-06-03T20:41:29.439-07:002009-06-03T20:41:29.439-07:00Maybe one day my kids will blog about their terrib...Maybe one day my kids will blog about their terrible mother who only bought whole wheat bread, made whole wheat pancakes and brought apples and carrots for snacks.

I can't imagine how anything that tastes that awful could be good for anyone. <br /><br />The drink box that I was deprived of was "Super Socco". I was taught to just get a drink from the fountain at school if I was thirsty.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10865133051477391562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3474631414338437142.post-62839765407035094682009-06-03T11:05:07.004-07:002009-06-03T11:05:07.004-07:00I remember sitting at the NuSkin consoles discussi...I remember sitting at the NuSkin consoles discussing our crazy school lunches growing up.

Wow Jack doesn't know what he is missing, but crustless sandwiches sound good. I think this food thing is inherited. Grandpa Marc used to say that the crust made one's hair curley-his was and Jack's already is-so maybe he doesn't need the crust. You failed to mention my aweful waffles with everything and anything added to enhance them....chocolate, almonds-of course, raisens, etc. The popcorn kernels disappointed me since they did not pop.
