Hey hey hey!!! Looks like we all made it to Friday! Finally! Sheesh. This week lasted forever. But all that matters is that we made it…and that it’s time for Fun Fact Friday! Boy do I have some good ones for today.

Most importantly…

Today is Makenzie’s 3rd birthday!!

That news makes me a) teary, b) happy, and c) shocked. I don’t know how three years have passed already, but I do know that she enriches my life beyond measure. Except for maybe during temper tantrums??? Who am I kidding? Even then I love the heck out of her and can’t wait to celebrate her birthday!

And speaking of birthdays – I’m a terrible party planner. Makenzie’s party is TOMORROW and I have not a clue what I’m doing for food. We have the cake, but as for princess snack ideas….I’m at a loss. Decorations? You know they will be standard princess plates from the party store. Which I still need to pick up. Oops!

I wish I wasn’t so awful at party planning because I would happily host all of the following parties I have always wanted to attend:

• a murder mystery dinner party
• an 80s party
• a Halloween/costume party
• a tacky Christmas sweater party

I must have an underlying desire to dress up in crazy outfits. And I’m sure my friends are all breathing a sigh of relief that I hate party planning right now.

Peter killed Barbie.

Yes. A few days ago, I drove up to our house with that starting at me. I seriously considered getting back in my car and driving away. I knew an ugly scene awaited me behind our doors. At least I know I’m the favorite parent now.  

Jewelry hates me.

I could never get my ears pierced because I would inevitably get a terrible infection no matter what I tried. Necklaces always make me feel like I’m wearing a turtleneck. Now even my wedding rings are revolting against me! What is with that nasty, burning rash where my rings go?!

I do not take attractive race pictures.

Then again…does anyone?

When doing a run on the treadmill yesterday, I stumbled across a question in Shape that claimed 22% of women would rather have their dream body than a million dollars. Interesting. Very interesting.

Not gonna lie – if by dream body they mean one that will stay perfectly healthy on the inside and fit on the outside AND allow me to eat a giant cupcake every day without it changing a thing…I would go for the body.

Money can’t buy happiness. Frosting can. I can’t wait to see how many people take me serious.

I feel insanely happy right now. And, no, that is not code for “I just ate a tub of frosting”. I’m just…happy. I hope you are too.

• What type of party have you always wanted to throw/attend?
• Would you choose the body or $1 million?

Hi! Do you know who I am? I sure hope so because I think I’m something special.

My mommy told me that some of her friends wanted to hear about the things I eat. Then I heard you all play some weird What I Ate Wednesday game.

I like games. I like food. I like being like Mommy.

I guess I can play along and tell you what I eat. It was a yummy day.

For breakfast, I always have to have my favorite meal. Unless Daddy makes pancakes. Then, I want pancakes. But on a normal day I want a bowl of oatmeal, half a banana, and a cup of milk. It’s my favorite!

Mommy will even put some pumpkin in my oatmeal so I can be just like her.

After breakfast I either go to school or stay at home to torture play with my little brother. I like to pretend I’m his mommy, which is tiring. I get hungry for a snack.

Yesterday I was at home. At school I get goldfish or pretzels or other things for snack. I like it a lot, but I like my snacks from Mommy too.

Yesterday, I wanted a bar just like mommy. My mommy’s friend, Chelsey , gave her two sunbutter bars. We each had one. I like Chelsey. She gave me green Halloween socks. Mommy & I both ate our bars and agreed we liked them. Although I don’t think it tasted like the sun??? It wasn’t hot!

After a couple more hours, I wanted my lunch. I was sooooo excited for lunch! Mommy told me we had leftover crushed tomatoes, so that meant we could have pizza for lunch! Yipee! I like pizza. I like pizza a lot. Almost as much as I like cake!

I had some apple slices with my pizza. It was the best. It gave me a nice and full belly so I could sleep nicely. I decided to help Mommy out and take a three hour nap. She says she gets work done during my naps. I think she just plays with my toys. Or naps too. I like to make mommy very tired.

When I wake up, I’m hungry again. Oh, goody! Mommy is making some green smoothies. I love love love green smoothies.

They are the perfect snack! Or yogurt. I like yogurt for snack too. Maybe I will have both! No. Mommy says I can’t spoil my dinner. She knows me too well.

By dinner I try to tell Mommy I don’t like vegetables. She says I had vegetables already in my smoothie. Hold up! WHAT?!

Okay. I guess vegetables can be yummy. I always eat what Mommy makes for dinner. She won’t make me a special dinner, unless it’s the weekend. If Mommy or Daddy get Subway or make a pizza for them, then I get macaroni and cheese! The bunny kind is the best! If only they made a DUCK kind.

I’m kind of obsessed with ducks. All I want for my birthday is a purple light-up bouncy one I found at the store. I told Mommy to be happy it’s a $2 present.

What was I talking about again? Oh, dinner! This blogging thing is hard. For dinner I had a beef sandwich like mommy and some green beans. Not as good as macaroni and cheese but it will do.

I hope you liked reading what I eat. Now, I must go back to being a princess.

• Oh, wait. Mommy says I need to ask a question. Sooooo…what was YOUR favorite thing to eat as a kid? And tell me if you know where to find duck shaped macaroni and cheese!
