Lest you be tempted to romanticize our lives of barn-dwelling bookmaking, this is what lunchtime often looks like. Or maybe it’s breakfast. Robbi tends not to take her meals at predictable intervals.
It’s a wonder we manage to keep ourselves alive.

I thought Robbi only ate ice cream?

Yes – but I thought I’d try a “healthy lunch” today. Now that you mention it, these ingredients would have made for an EXCELLENT banana split (sans cat, of course).
If the cat had both eyes closed I would still be looking. I hope the kids got more than a nanner and pretzel, although, that is a meal in this house too so I won’t judge.

A little bit of sweet and a little bit of salty, sounds good to me. Maybe throw in a spoonful of peanut butter for good measure. As for the cat, I never would have noticed if s/he hadn’t been mentioned.

It took me a minute to find the cat.
I’m with Robbi!
