I’m Up To My Evil Tricks Again

December 16, 2008 · 12 comments

Remember how I told you I enjoy torturing my family?  Oh, come on.  Don’t scoff at me.  We all have our quirks.

So last night during dinner I excitedly volunteered an idea for a new game.  The game would involve me planting a stray hair in one person’s food each night.  The “winner”, after discovering the hair, would win a free dessert pass, meaning he or she would not be required to finish the meal to get dessert.

And no, I wouldn’t really do that.  It was a joke.  Ha ha.  I may enjoy torturing them but even I have my limits.

My idea for the dinner game gave us a little chuckle and some inspired conversation briefly before we moved right along and forgot about it.

At least I thought we’d forgotten about it.

After the kids went to bed I went into Kennedy and Cassidy’s bathroom to put away clean towels.  Stuck on the wall, next to Kennedy’s mirror, I found this:

And I thought I was the one providing comic relief for the family.  Go figure.

That is hilarious! What a hoot! I’ll bet there is never a dull moment over there. Just the way I like it.

That is totally gross but funny! I don’t think that game would work here. I could see my son putting a hair in his food just so he could go straight to dessert.

Ok, now that is funny! I don’t which is funnier, that they actually ‘bought’ into the game, or the fact that they put a reminder note up to remember!!

Please have a very Merry Christmas!

That made me laugh out loud! But at least you offer a free dessert pass…that’s fair, I think.

You are funny! I wish I could have been there to see there faces when you made that announcement. It probably looked a lot like mine during the first two paragraphs of this post!
