[blparent] Garlic sundae, anyone?

[Erin Rumer]

Yes, even now I'll wipe something off my son's face that I think is just
food crumbs to find that it was mud, dog food or something else disgusting
after licking my finger.  Why lick my finger?  It's what us moms do from
time to time when we're running out the door in a rush or out and about not
near a bathroom or just ran out of baby-wipes and it's just gram cracker
from our baby, right?  Yes, until it's not actually gram cracker, but it
makes for a giggle nun-the-less! LOL

And just you wait, then your kiddos will want to cook and they put all kinds
of strange things in the pot.  And because you are a good parent you eat a
few bites and say it is good.  And when they're not looking, you put it down
the garbage disposal! (lol)

A funny thing happened this afternoon.  Sarah moved up to the four- and
five-year-old class at preschool, so to celebrate, I made her an ice cream
sundae.  Neopolitan ice cream, all three flavors, whipped cream, and
sprinkles.  Everything went well till the sprinkles.  I had two kinds, and I
took one kind out of the cupboard.  Sarah objected, so I thought she wanted
the other kind.  I let her guide my hand up to the bottle she wanted.  I
should have tasted or smelled the contents of the bottle, which I usually
do, but I figured Sarah knew the bottle she wanted by sight.  I sprinkled
the sundae generously and put the bottle away.

Then I heard a wail, "It tastes awful, Mama!  It tastes like ... yuck!"

You guessed it!  Garlic sundae.  I felt so silly.  I made another sundae,
but this is one of those things we'll probably remember and laugh over for
years to come.
