Why I'm Taking Back the Kitchen

5 Ways to Know it’s Time to Get Your Son Out of the Kitchen

1. When he can’t remember how to cook Rice Cereal after the 3,648th time.

2. When the smell of something burning starts permeating the house.

3. When you have to eat said Rice Cereal the 3,648th time AND it’s burnt.

4. When you have to scrub about ½” of black stuff from off the bottom.

5. When your stomach starts to rebel at the thought of having Rice Cereal for the 3,649th time.

Okay son, we wave the white flag of surrender. We'll give you a different job.  You name it, you can have it.  Pleeease SM, just let us have back the kitchen on Thursday’s. We’ll cook up something good, but one thing I can promise IT'S NOT GOING TO BE RICE CEREAL FOR A VERY LONG TIME!(Can you hear that shouting?  Don't worry about it, it's just the rest of the family giving a big cheer.)

    Oh, this was sooo funny! We’ve had times like that here as well. 🙂 At our house it’s oatmeal that we’ve had a lot of, plus depending on who makes it , it might be kind of yucky. The joys of teaching children to cook can make wonderful memories.

    Have a great day!

    P.S. Thank you for the comment you left about the music station. We are pretty conservative in our music tastes. Sounds like we have a lot in common. 🙂

I love hearing from you! Thank you for taking the time to comment.
