and, then wondered what the heck she's doing to these kids?
I took a set of twins for a week while my friend is in Hawaii.
She warned me they are hard to feed. But, for a week, I can handle it. My friend texts me a list of what they WILL eat.
KRAFT mac n cheese, frozen processed chicken nuggets (still frozen) Frozen waffles (still frozen) Soft pretzels and "the usual staples like cookies and chips".
Okaaay.... well, I can do Mac n cheese one day. But, when I do mac n cheese, I make one box for ALL the kids. The mom yelled at me this morning because "Barb makes a box for each twin". A BOX???? They just turned three in August.
So far this week, they ate one piece of white bread with butter, a scoop of mac and cheese and four cookies. Mom is furious with me, because "Barb always accommodates them".
Carbs? That is all they eat? Just carbs? Frozen carbs no less.
My friend Barb was a nurse until a few years ago. Wouldn't this make her cringe? I can get that "Whatever...they aren't my kids" attitude, but I can't feed three year olds nothing but unlimited carbs.
Tomorrow is their last day. I reminded mom to make sure they eat a lot in the morning, because I am not serving an entire box of mac and cheese per twin.
