The Importance of Being Lauren

This is what the real Breakfast Bowl looks like! A couple months ago my mom and I tried the new Jack In The Box breakfast bowl; courtesy of my grandmother. I was pretty hungry that morning so I asked my mom for the big bowl, instead my wise mother said,"You've never had it before, how are you sure you'll like it?" She of course won, and we both got a small. It smelled so good and I was almost tempted to open it right then and there but I waited like the good girl I am. Finally we stopped and I opened the container holding what I thought was breakfast deliciousness; as I opened it I found that the ad on TV was a total scam! The bowl of "food" on my lap looked like really bad dog food that even my dog who eats practically everything wouldn't eat. "I'm sure it'll taste fine.", I told myself as I took a small bite of it. I was wrong, so wrong I tell you. It was absolutely horrid! I couldn't believe that somebody would actually sell...

Dear Stomach, I'm terribly sorry that I ate both sauerkraut , and burritos at lunch today. I know that I was very foolish to commit a crime so horrendous, and I'm truly sorry for the pain that I caused you. I would also like to apologize for drinking a milkshake even though you already felt like dying, I honestly didn't feel your pain until after I had already finished. I hope you will accept my apology, and also understand that I have learned my lesson and I will never do it again. Lots of Love (and pain)- Sunbum *This really did happen, you can ask my mom. I came moaning onto her bed and she said,"If you ate a burrito and sauerkraut for lunch then I have no sympathy for you!" I stared at her in disbelief. "How did you know?" I asked her astonished. She laughed and shook her head at me and said,"No sympathy, none at all. It's your own fault. You are the one that started the war between the Mexicans and the Germans." *sniff* My mother ...

This post is brought to you from Sunbum's Dorky Injuries Report. The following is just to assure you that this is not being written from behind or beyond the grave....... Anybody who has ever read my Blog would know that it's just a walk in the park for me when it comes to hitting my head on car doors , and munching the floor in skipping accidents , or pouring scorching hot cereal on my face!! Sadly it wasn't any of those things this time. Today I got to try something new and " different" in the kitchen injury department. It wasn't the dorkiest thing that I've done, and it wasn't life threatening (If anybody was worried)it was just plain old Sunbum dorkiness......Can you guess what I did? I was attacked by the papercut giving "Paper Plate of Doom" at lunch!! I have the cuts to prove it too! Yes, you may laugh now.....

Friday afternoon my mom finally decided to satisfy her ongoing craving for Chinese food. As soon as we walked through those golden doors; and passed that smiling Buddha rubbing his own belly, I knew that it was going to be an odd meal. I was the source of entertainment in the beginning of the meal, because every time I ate a piece of sushi I would pile on the wasabi and pop it in my mouth. If you have ever had wasabi you will know what happened, for those of you that haven't it isn't pleasant at all! As the meal progressed I ate even more sushi and then I almost tried egg drop soup. I say almost because I got scared of the absolutely horrid smell. When we were all so full that we could hardly move; my mom bet Buster everything in her wallet to eat a octopus. While Buster went up to get it, I whined to my dad that nobody ever bets me to eat stuff he told me,"Well Sunbum it's because you'd eat anything . So it's not any fun to do it to you." Hm.. It's ...

Saturday evening my mom made a delicious dinner which consisted of rigatoni, salad, watermelon, and biscuits . During dinner I decided that it would be polite to compliment my mom so I told her,"Hey, mom these biscuits are really good!" I thought I was being nice, but suddenly she looked upset and asked,"What about the rigatoni? All I did with the biscuits was put them in the oven!" I felt my face go crimson while I tried to make things better by saying,"Well I think all of it is good, especially your rigatoni. I just really liked the biscuits ." Thankfully my siblings all came to my rescue and started complimenting the rigatoni also. It's not my fault that I love Pillsbury stuff, I would have taken credit for it!
