Bribery…It Works

January 31, 2009

I just bribed my children with Blendinis from Rita’s to pick up the obscene amount of toys they left all over the house today. I’m not sure what chapter of the Parenting Mistakes You Will Live to Regret handbook covers this but I’m certain it’s in there….

    I’m sure you will find a copy of “How to Manage Your Parents” hiding in their bookshelf.

    It’s chapter 7.

    I don’t like the number seven, funnily enough it is my eldest favourite number.

    OH, so jealous. Our Rita’s closes from late October to March every year. No gelati makes for a long winter. Boo.

    Umm. We don’t have a Rita’s. Can you bribe me with one of those, please? They look yummy.

    I don’t think there’s any shame in that, J, I can’t even tell you the things I might do for one of those. My price is cheap.

    The goats are in the process of rewriting the chapter to which you refer. Just so you know.

    Now that Santa bribe opportunities are over for several months, you needed to come up with something. I salute your ingenuity!

    Can I cancel the order within 30 days if I opt to not keep it?
