After enjoying a nice meal with our friends on Sunday evening, we decided to make ice-cream. Everyone enjoyed the yummy treat, but I was surprised to see Savannah refusing a bowl of ice-cream. She had other plans. She patiently waited until everyone was through eating and I began to take the machine apart to wash it. "Mom, I didn't get to have any ice-cream. Can I lick the bowl?" Savannah asked me with puppy dog eyes. I saw no harm in it, so I told her to dig in. The funny part of the story is the fact that we lecture our children on proper meal time manners and how to act when we have guests over. (when guests aren't at our home there is usually more food on the floor then on our plates.) I can only imagine what our guests were thinking when they saw the girl above licking a bowl with her tongue and smearing ice-cream with her fingers. All the while her mom is taking pictures! Secretly I too have licked the ice-cream bowl.
