I made my children Kraft Dinner for lunch today. For over 5 years they have been begging for the stuff. I think when they beg I have always said “Ok, I will buy it” and then conveniently forget (bad passive aggressive parenting style). Then I make homemade mac and cheese with 4 cheeses, milk and butter and TLC. They love this but not in the same way. After all, it does not glow in the dark.
They are studying today – so for a treat I will give them what “sustained” me during my three years at University. I am pretty sure I lived off of TAB (banned two decades ago for what it did to lab rats), cigs, coffee and KD, donuts, peanut butter and pizza. Did I mention beer? Breakfast of champions.
At the end I gained more than just a degree.
It is taking all my self control not to mix in some steamed broccoli or cherry tomatoes. Nothing like a reformed kdaholic.
Or how about the dreaded 70’s standby, green peas and tuna! Ugh….
I’ve caved on the K-D wagon too!
