"Would you like to try some?" asked the smiling lady in grocery aisle. She held out a tiny plastic cup with two graham cracker sticks and a scoop of chocolate cheesecake filling.
It's cheesecake, lady! Of course we want to try some.
"Yes please. We would love to try it. Wouldn't we, kids?"
"Yes please, Mama."
We walked away dipping our two little crackers in that tasty filling. We dipped until we ran out of cracker. I being a rational adult made the chocolate and the filling come out even. Charlie ran short of cracker and resorted to using his tongue and a good deal of his face to get at the rest of the chocolate goodness. He worked quietly as we trekked down three whole aisles. Then he looked up. Brown sweet goo covered his face from the nose down, ear to ear. But Charlie is resourceful. He used his shirt to take care of the damage as I scanned the aisle in vain for a box of wipes.

My youngest prefers to wipe his hands in his hair.
I would kill for some right now!
Getting the cracker/filling ratio is learned. Wiping your face with your shirt? That's instinct.
I think the ratio thing is a learned skill! LOL!
Love ya!

Of course, the "shirt as a napkin" phenomenon is common as well...
Course, this just adds to that washing machine nightmare.
