I always thought that Daniel would break the first window. But no, it was Isabel. With one of those kiddy wooden shakers. She thought it was hysterically funny. We were just plain hysterical. And our handyman has decided to buy and gardening service and now I’m stuck. So, if you know of a good handyman in the Durbanville area, please send me a message in spaces! Please, before hubby get ideas in his head to try and fix it!!
We had a friend and his boys over on Saturday evening and he brought chicken sosaties, something we never make as I don’t really like them. Daniel went mad, he ate a whole big sosatie all by himself. So, tonight we made them sosaties and they absolutely loved it.
Halfway through supper Hubby says we can just wash the sosatie sticks and then re-use them. In my family it is unthinkable to recycle sosatie sticks so imagine my horror. But then I got the 3rd degree about how I’m forever bleating about killing trees so I thought, maybe not such a bad idea. But then I threw them away “by mistake”. Are you really meant to recycle sosatie sticks???
The scariest thing was that I had a vision of what he is going to be like in 30 years’ time. Snoep like his Mom. 🙂
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahaa! Funny about the sosatie debacle. I also cannot see myseld recycling that…
I’m with you, I wouldn’t recycle the sosatie sticks. (Sorry, trees, but at least they are biodegradable.) We’ve found that children will eat most anything if you put it on a stick. For one of D’s birthdays we did fruit sosaties and the children devoured them. At one point D always wanted “traffic lights” – strawberry, orange and kiwi fruit on a sosatie stick or tomato, carrot and cucumber. He still loves chicken sosaties and that’s always his choice for the kiddy meal at Nandos except they just call them chicken strips.
I wouldn’t recycle them either. Amazing how kids love things on sticks. If Tash is being finickity with her eating I make picnic dinners – dice everything and let her eat it with toothpicks.
Tell your dear Hubbie that recycling sosatie sticks is not on! The bacteria get into the wood and you can’t clean them out!!
Haven’t got a handyman I’m afraid, will check with my Mom. xxxx
I agree! You definitely do not recycle sosaties sticks – escpecially chicken! My Dad was my handyman this weekend!
🙂 recycling sosatie sticks a definite no-no!
I think he was having a moment..
Agree, I think putting food on a stick is the single biggest parenting lesson I have learnt!
Agree!
I also had a moment about bacteria..
Pity he left 🙁
haha, my hubby was definitely having a moment!
Not sure about the Sosatie sticks. I would probably NOT recycle them. Definitely going to try serving food on a stick. Can’t believe that it never crossed my mind to attempt this as yet!
Not sure about Handy Men types in that area. Google always has the answers. And sometimes the yellow pages.
Good luck with finding someone..xx
Let me know the food-on-a-stick works!
