I stole a line from my two year old this evening. When she wants to make sure you know that something is hers and not yours, she pulls it close to her body and declares, "NO! MY Teagan."
Buddy and I were once again in the throes of the age old debate of who eats what and when. (For previous instances, please refer back to It's Happening Again, and Quotable Quotes and The Last Kiss.)
Upon discovering a bag of Ghirardelli chocolates in the pantry, Buddy rightly inquired as to from whence they came (I don't buy treats a lot). I told him my friend, Hillary, gave them to me for my birthday.
"Well, I think Hillary would want me to have one."
"Um, Hillary gave them to me, so she surrendered her right to decide who eats them."
"SEE?!" pointing to the intact seal at the top of the bag. "Point proven. Unopened after more than a month. If it were up to you, these would still be here on your birthday next year."
"I like to savour my treats. Sue me. Actually, just have one. And I'll have TWO."
I showed him.
2 pennies for your thoughts:
Funny you should post about savoring your sweets. I actually pulled out a delectable salted caramel milk chocolate macadamia nut cluster and thought to myself "oh I remember the time we gave some of these to Michelle and she rationed them out... I should give her one when she is over tomorrow"... don't let me forget!
My blog roll sadly stopped working, telling me that you hadn't updated in THREE WEEKS! So you can imagine my surprise when I clicked and saw that I was 5 posts behind! Now that i've successfully put off what I didn't want to do in the first place...which I can't remember what it was. Nice.
