You know you are scraping the bottom of the barrel when your lunch consists of a soup made from spaghetti noodles, a can of green beans, a can of peas, a can of corn, some vegetable broth, dried onion flakes, and random and liberal dumping in of spices of which I have no clue what they are actually for. Actually, it isn't all that bad. I keep thinking that it would go good with warm buttery cornbread. Hope took a couple of bites and then shot me a mean look and announced "Momma, I do NOT love it!" Which hastily got her excused from the table. I guess I can't count on her to take an openminded approach to my limited creative skills in culinary arts. Logan is chowing down. It is either not all that bad or he has just reached the age boys do where he is a bottomless pit and will consume anything put in front of him. I have a feeling it is more the latter. Savannah wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole, it didn't shock me. She doesn't touch most normal dishes with a ten foot pole. However, she did find it quite amusing that she is now using hot pink party napkins for toilet paper. I hope she doesn't start expecting that. Thank god the groceries will be here at seven tonight. I don't think I could ration party napkin toilet paper much past this afternoon.
