Oh So Funny




This is so funny and so true.
Happens to me all the time.
Makes you think why do it at all?
Simpler to go for buffet and let them choose but
some people don't even like that. lol

Reminds me of the story of the crane who invited the fox to dinner and served food in long necked vases which of course the fox could not eat much from.
The fox invited the crane for dinner and served food in flat plates which of course
the crane could not eat much from because of his long beak.

Hope you enjoy.

The link is great but sometimes they disappear so I put in the ingredients cause they are great for kids
and make great gifts.
