I decided to get a little creative in the baking department the other day. I had made these cute little monster creatures out of sugar cookies. I took two cookies, and made a little sandwich with frosting. One side had a little extra, so that the two cookies together looked like a mouth. Then I added M&M eyeballs and an orange tongue. I was rather pleased with my creations, and thought my kids would like seeing them in their lunch.
When my son, Bubba came home, I opened up his lunch box. Everything had been eaten Except the cookie.
"Bubba," I said. "Why didn't you eat the cookie?"
"Mama, it was too cute to eat. I didn't want to bite off his eyeballs."
"So you're not going to eat this thing?"
"No."
"Then what are you going to do with it?"
He shrugged his shoulders and walked out of the room.
So much for my brilliant idea. Anybody want a cookie?
