Banana Split

Filed Under: Uncategorized 1 Comment

Elissa reflects on her first banana split… My mommy is a stickler when it comes letting me have sweets or dessert. Most of the time, we all eat fruit or something healthy. When the rest of the family does get dessert, my treat is a graham cracker or two. But tonight…Mommy made banana splits. Must have been one of Mommy’s many “cravings” these days. Regardless, it paid off for me. I got my first BANANA SPLIT. You can see me in the above picture taking it all in…chomping on a maraschino cherry.
So yummy. And I even used my own big girl spoon.

I announced I was “all done” and was going to dump out the rest of my ice cream to play with it and smear it around my tray. Oh but Daddy was too fast. He took it AWAY from me.

And then of all things, he did not give it back to me.

Instead, I got wiped down and clean. But oh I will remember and be looking forward to my mommy’s next crack in her armor for yet another banana split. Yummy. Yummy. Yummy.

    Oh so cute. The best photo is her crying after Nathan grabbing it. Such a strong personality–wonder where that comes from! 🙂 So I am thinking of coming for a visit on Saturday. Will you be busy? I’ll call later in the week to let you know if it will work.

Welcome to the Prairie…

I am a mom of three kids and a wife to Nathan. Together we live on the North Dakota prairie, 97 miles from a Starbuck's. I share about family, food, farming and the prairie that I love. I used to commute 98 miles one-way to work but it required too much coffee. So now I am home, consulting, speaking, writing and primarily, juggling family life.
