mushroom soup and pb&j's

the sound currently assaulting my ears at decibel levels that would shame a fighter jet on full afterburn, and has finally pulled me away from the elctronic nipple.

for a long time i assumed that i was the most stubborn creature on earth. now i have to admit i have truly met my match. after 10 minutes of the aforementioned audio assault, i have finally caved in to jr's demands.

it is truly hard to describe what ten minutes of "SOUP DADDY...... I WANT SOUP!!!!" repeated over and over in a mind numbing mantra can do to your concentration (let alone what it does to your patience).
so grudgingly i un-plug my butt from WoW, and head to the kitchen to make soup.
easy task, right? I THINK NOT! you see i am incapable of just making something straight out of the can/box/package. as a trained chef, i just can't not improve!

so while i am in the kitchen improving the cream of mushroom soup (add heavy cream, bacon bits and bay leaf) jr sneaks up behind me and screams "PEANUT BUTTER JELLY SAMMICH..... NO CRUST.... PLLLEEEEAAAASSSEEEEE!!!!! DADDY"

rotten little culinary critic doesnt seem to want the soup anymore.... i mean what the hell is this all about...... little sucker has been screaming for soup like he's a half starved squirrel on redbull for the last 15 minutes, and NOW he wants to change the order mid stream???

i'm sorry sir, your soup is coming out now, if you still want the pb&j i can make you one when you finish your soup.

"ok' jr says , his shoulders slump as he sighs and dejectedly shuffles to his tv table. and as i set the soup in front of him he sort of scowls/pouts and (i kid you not, MUTTERS under his breath) says" i don't want soup."

i fix him with my hard assed daddy glare (actully work about 25% of the time) and say you better eat your soup or your'e gonna be hungry, he responds quite simply, through gritted teeth he says ooooKKKK. as i walk away i swear i hear him mutter agaiin "no soup"

approximately 35-40 seconds later as i have just walked backed into the kitchen i hear "MORE SOUP PLEASE" i look out at him as he waves a bowl that is so clean he has licked the painted flowers off the rim.

wtf, does he just enjoy yanking my chain.. ahh well fickle is the epicurean critique.
peace
