To Share Or Not To Share? June 19, 2011

There’s four of us in my family, so sometimes we have to say things like, “There are 12 donuts, so everyone gets three.” Or, “There’s eight cupcakes, so everyone gets two.” And we have to respect that! Otherwise someone will eat seven and leave one for the remaining three people to try and share equally. And by someone, I *don’t* mean me.

Ok, it’s me…

But sometimes, we make a batch of something like brownies or cookies and we say, “These are snooze you lose brownies” meaning eat as much as you want as fast as you want and we’ll see who gets what. If you wait too long, well…

This works well when everyone is familiar with the concept: the higher the snoozing, the higher the losing. And also, when some or all parties don’t have their heart set on whatever delicious treat awaits.

However, good luck making a sandwich in our house without someone asking, “Is that sandwich for everybody?” knowing full well it’s not! That’s a big joke around our house. Oh, it never gets old. I’m LOL’ing right now. :lol:

In fact, one of the funniest story lines in “Better With You” (a grossly underrated show, I might add!) is when everyone wants to eat the one donut the CPR teacher is saving for himself.

So…

You think these nuts are for everybody? ;)
