About a month after all three of them (actually my husband) bought it and presented it to me. I think she was in grade 2.

She was sure it was coming from my room, but I fooled her - I got rid of the mouldy sandwich before she could find it in my room by moving it to the back of my sister's wardrobe. And why didn't I just throw it away when I found it? Well, it was at the bottom of a duffle bag and I couldn't bring myself to put my hand in the bag to grab the plastic bag with the sandwich in it, so I moved the whole duffle bag into my sister's room. Of course I hadn't thought through the fact that it was MY duffle bag . . .

BUT, the sugar and spice thing did make me smile because it reminded me of how MAD it made my son when it was recited when he was small. He was adamant that he was NOT made of snips and snails and puppy dog tails!<br /><br />But yes, I've run across a few little girls who were definitely not made of sugar and spice all the time.Gigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05467164195744234746noreply@blogger.com
