Zoe came home and decided she really wanted this special sandwich I made for her once in her school lunch.. it came with sprinkles. In continuous begging for details, it came out this was her lunch kit birthday on her 5th birthday (yes, how does she remember these things????!!!). Finally after trying to talk to Bruce about it I realized it must have been a Nutella sandwich (before I found out they have more sugar than icing) and that I added the sprinkles because it was her birthday at school. well we have no Nutella, no icing. this resulted in a breakdown (not the first of the day, I've been having near panic attacks with my work all day).. and finally, I covered bread in peanut butter, telling her she needed something of substance, it was clear that sugar on its own was not the answer, and then set up a bar of honey, jelly, bread, and sprinkles. Finally, we worked it out, I continued to work, they sugared up.. all is well. I even got a thank you minutes ago for the sprinkle sandwich.
