Gelato Trip

Posted in Journal

We have a little gelato shop not too far from our house.  Sometimes I wish we hadn't discovered it.  I'm so addicted!  When I was pregnant I craved the Caramel Apple gelato, then it was Cinnamon, then it was the Peppermint, then it was Peach Mango-- now it is Blackberry and I'm not even pregnant...  Jaylyn LOVES gelato and she thinks all ice cream is gelato.  Even Jaxon has had a few tastes. 

We made a little trip to the gelato shop this evening.  It was so good!  As we were leaving, Jaylyn started to get cranky.  Get in your car seat please.  "I don't want to!"  It's time to go home.  "I don't want to go to bed!"  Then she asked for her little computer that she plays with in the car.  We waited until she asked politely.  She turned on her computer and it started talking (keep in mind that this phonics computer is probably the most annoying toy ever invented).  "H says hhhhhhhh.  Press the letter H!"  From the back seat, "But I don't WANT to press the letter H."  The toy was turned off then dropped to the floor.  The front seat was laughing uncontrollably.  It may not sound funny, but at the time it was soooooo funny.  (Bedtime followed shortly after our arrival home.  It had been a LONG day!)

Well, at least you know that is wasn't just you she was being disaggreeable with :-).
Regarding your gardening, have you read Steve Dobbs book on Oklahoma Gardening? He used to be the host of Oklahoma Gardening on OETA (please excuse me if you already know all this) and his book gives great tips on gardening dependant on where you live in OK.
Your entry reminded me of a conversation at the dinner table tonite about Cool Whip (ugh). My oldest daughter commented that it tasted just like ice cream and I said, "I don't think so."
Blessings, Julie

That had me laughing out loud! She was just tired of being told what to do, even by a toy!
