Glitter makes lunch

This afternoon Glitter volunteered to make lunch for the family. She announced that she would make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. As no-one else was inclined to cook, we readily agreed to her proposal.

Glitter got to work, taking out all the supplies she needed, and we left her to her own devices. A few minutes later, she had made a sandwich for each of us, carefully wiped off the knife, and then put everything way.



After surveying her work, Glitter decided that the meal needed something else: Carrots. Okay, carrots are reasonable side dish, so I returned to my book and waited for Glitter to announce when lunch was ready. When I came back, I burst out laughing. The carrots were not *beside* the sandwiches; they were *in* the sandwiches. Glitter wanted to try an "experiment," but not wanting to take things too far, her own carrots were next to her sandwich.



Wander and Sparkle removed their carrots, but I had a very crunch sandwich for lunch. A crunchy, healthy sandwich is a small price to pay for not having to cook. In my experience, criticizing the cook leads to the critic having to cook.
