We need to come up with a name for these, something synonymous with Story people, but you know, not. Beth-something or other ... hilarious... the last little bit just always makes the laughter rush right out of me!
Such a sweet, amusing post, Beth. I remember all too well sitting at the dinner table not wanting to eat my vegetables and legumes, such as lima beans, peas, carrots, black-eyed peas. At times, feeding them to Ponty, our cocker spaniel, who sat under the table begging. My mother never forced her children to eat things they didn't like. She just said, "If you don't like it, don't put it on your plate." But, now, as an adult, I love those types of foods. Cheers Beth!!
Mom always used to say that it was OK to eat the burnt toast, and that it would put hair on my chest.
Uh...mom...no thanks!
This was so funny. You know how to snag us unexpectedly at the end with the zinger. It made me laugh out loud. Which is dangerous, because I am SUPPOSED to be working!
How I hated carrots when I was a kid....and how many times I had to sit at the table until either I or my mother gave in about me eating them...now I love them...was it worth all those power plays?

Oh I wish I had thought of that comeback. I still struggle with vegetables eventhough I know they are good for me.

Mothers are human huh, we have to admit to those thoughts sometimes. That was a pretty great answer from a little kid!
A great afternoon chuckle that is much needed after the meeting from hell....LOL

How come cooked carrots taste yucky and raw ones are so good ?
Hmmm...
Have a cozy evening, lovely Beth !

Oh I love this, thanks for the chuckle. take care.
Nice one, Beth!
Very funny!

I love cooked carrots but the rest of my fmily has no appreciation for them.

Too cute Beth- I had a few of those children myself :)
I wish that I'd been able to come back with a smart ass comment, especially when it came to eating carrots. God, I hate carrots!
cheeky comes to mind, *grin*
You crack me up...so you grew up big and strong and a smart ass?

Bravo!
Oh no! She can't grow up weak and be a ballerina! Simply cannot!
bahahha! i grew up pretty big and strong with very few vegetables. now i am trying to make up for it! :)
How I hated carrots when I was a kid....and how many times I had to sit at the table until either I or my mother gave in about me eating them...now I love them...was it worth all those power plays?
I hope there is a part of that little ballerina inside of me somewhere.
Love it.
