Can't make me!!

Do your children ask for bites of your food ALL THE TIME?!  Mine do!  And normally, I don't care.  It doesn't bother me to share.  Sharing is good.  I want my boys to share with each other and with other people.

I drew the line last night!  A few days ago TH came home and raved about an apple dip a co worker's wife had made.  Hello! A good recipe.... bring it home!  So, Wednesday TH comes home with the recipe.  It's called Apple Brinkle Dip.  OMG!  Just looking at the ingredient list had my mouth watering.

I made it last night but didn't have apples to dip it with.  What's a girl to do?!  I text my neighbor and his wife because earlier TH had said they left to go out to dinner.  Yes, oh yes I did!  I asked for them to stop and pick me up a couple of G.ranny S.mith apples.  When the boys saw the apples, I kept hearing.... "Bite! Bite!"..... "I eat apple."...... I mean really, I didn't want to share.

I'll tell you a secret though.  I shared the apples but not the dip.  Ha!  I drew the line last night and kept the dip hidden from little boys' views.  Call me a bad mom but I don't care because it was mine..... all mine! :)

I'll post the recipe later when I get home.  I remember most of it but there's one ingredient that I can't remember the measurement for.

(PS.  We have great neighbors! We're extremely lucky.  We "borrow" stuff from each other all the time.... sugar, eggs, tea bags, pasta sauce, and even popcorn.)

I may or may not have done the same with popcorn last night. I'll never tell.
