I have started buying groceries for two weeks at a time. As I make the list to go shopping, I also make a list of the meals I will be fixing, this has proved to save us a good bit of money!
Anyway, we have a marker board on the fridge and I will write the meals for the next two weeks on the board, as we eat those meals I mark them out, or erase them from the board. Well, the board fell off the fridge other day and was laying on the counter. Leila took the marker and started writing on the board (pictures, Auburn signs...). She started asking how to spell "french fries"...then came "chicken"...by the time I looked over at what she was doing she had added French fries and chicken to the list of meals we are to have in the next two weeks! I said, "Leila, I don't remember adding that to the list, do you know how it got there?" With a grin that only means trouble, she replied "Not sure about that myself, but now that it is on "THE LIST" I guess you have to cook it!" The child is six! I couldn't help but laugh! Later she told me that she really wrote in on the board and begged me to make fries and chicken for her at somepoint soon!

Sneaky, sneaky! For some reason, I imagine Leila with a smile like yours, Tash. :-) Kids are so much fun, don't they?! My girls would probably write "pizza" and "bananas" as their favorite meals.
