Today has been a day. Most of it was spent processing apples and now I have fruit flies 🙄🤦‍♀️ I also yelled Shakespeare at Wes to stop a tantrum- not sure if that was a #parentingwin or a #parentingfail 😂 I did manage to get my #staycationintime mailed!

DinoMom First off- fruit flies are a pain in the ass, we have had so many this year. Secondly, I say parenting win and totally using that method ! Thirdly- yay for getting pack out ! 7mo
BethM @DinoMom I yelled the do you bite your thumb lines from R&J- feel free to try it and report back 😂 7mo

Bklover Applesauce!!!! What are you doing with all of your apples? Oh, I‘m very impressed that you can yell Shakespeare!❤️❤️❤️ (edited) 7mo
BethM @Bklover I made applesauce and apple butter. I failed at cider. Tried pie filling but it was waaaay too much work. We have ONE apple tree and it produces a metric ton of apples. 7mo
Bklover Sounds wonderful! I love to make applesauce (on a much smaller scale)! 7mo
Roary47 I have a terrible twoer myself hang in there. That is awesome you have a fruit tree. We tried to grow oranges and it didn‘t make it past a year. 😅 7mo
BethM @Roary47 I‘ve heard three is worse- how do we survive that?! 🙃😱also this tree is well established pre us- we probably couldn‘t have grown it either! 7mo
Roary47 My 2 yr old is 3 on Friday… I‘m scared. Lol. I mean I have a 5 year old too… and she is going on 15 with her Sass! 😵‍💫😬😵 7mo

Taking a break from reading tonight to bing this! 😍 I discovered the new episodes while searching for The Princess Bride movie. (My daughter asked me what The Princess Bride was!! 😱 #ParentingFail ) I totally plan on rectifying this grievance!

GingerAntics If you can find someone who streams The Princess Bride, let me know. I couldn‘t find it on anything I had (Netflix, Hulu, STARZ, Tubi). I added it to my wish list on VUDU. 5y
Literary_Siren @GingerAntics I looked through all the same services and couldn‘t find it. I‘m going to buy it on iTunes tomorrow. It‘s only $9.99. 5y
GingerAntics Oh it‘s cheaper on iTunes. I didn‘t think to look there. Thanks for that. 5y

Melissa_J That show is a hit in this house, too. My daughter has been binge watching season five the last few days. 5y
Literary_Siren @GingerAntics You‘re very welcome! 5y
Shaneyney Where can you watch this? I love janette oak 5y
Literary_Siren @Shaneyney Netflix has season 1-5! (edited) 5y
Shaneyney Is it similar to the “love comes softly “ seriess? 5y
Literary_Siren @Shaneyney I have no idea. I‘ve never read any of her books and I usually don‘t watch shows like this but I got hooked on the first episode of the first season and now I can‘t get enough! 5y
Sweetkokoro I have The Princess Bride on dvd and my daughter has watched it plenty of times with me (I made sure she knew what it was) and she finds me crazy for knowing majority of it word for word. And she still doesn‘t seem to understand my love for this movie haha. Hopefully your little one will enjoy it! 5y

What I think vacation mornings will be like: leisurely time spent drinking coffee and reading with my fav people on the planet 🌍 What vacation mornings are actually like: my youngest repeatedly explains to me that he can‘t eat a carrot muffin because it has RAISINS (#parentingfail) and KETCHUP (I‘m finding this one harder to credit but he will not be swayed by logic)

Thousand-Lives Haha this sounds all too familiar! 6y
scripturient Ha, this was exactly my vacation. 🙈😂 #mommysolidarity 6y
jillannjohn Yep been there with the raisins. 🙄 6y

Suelizbeth But raisins is a legitimate reason. I hate raisins. 6y
Parislovesbooks09 Lol raisins are the worst so I know the struggle 6y
Reggie Omg, I used to hate raisins. 🤮story coming up. One time my aunt was taking care of me when I was 3or4 and I threw up raisins. Neither of us knew where they came from. I hadn‘t eaten any that day. Sorry. Anytime someone mentions raisins that‘s what gets remembered. Lol 6y

Finishing up the 7y.o.'s reading homework and summary sheet. Anyone else notice in the Magic Tree House books that these kids are able to successfully sneak out of their house multiple times at different times of the day without their parents ever noticing?? They're like 7 and 8 years old! #parentingfail

Notafraidofwords This is why I find Dora disturbing sometimes. lol. Where are her parents. 7y
BeththeBookDragon My 7 year old has been reading these in class, and YES! Like Max and Ruby... Where are the parents?! 7y
