My son is fourteen years of age and he and I had disagreed. Silences of walls despaired had driven me to drop of knee. So I purchased groceries-- I bought vanilla coke. Then I spied Chef Boyardee-- enough to choke a goat. I placed them on the counter--greet I filled with ice a tweny-ounce and poured the soda heavenly watching gravely as he pounced upon the ravioli cold (I had purchased "over-stuffed") I watched him eating. I grew old anticipating belch "enough". Sigh. Y'know it took awhile... but then beloved, "gleeeeeeeeeeeee" My son stood grinning back at me with a red sauced smile. "I love you mom!" and then we hugged and yes, I felt an inward tug. "Pray" I begged the gods in me that all is healed so easily... I had missed him behind walls of device of mislain bricks. "Let us love each other tame" If Ravioli does the trick? I suggest you all buy stock. I ain't letting this boy go... |

So enjoyed! What is it with our children these day -- mine, too -- they always wanted that awful stuff which I only bought on occasion to please them!  |

Cold Ravioli. Shaking my head. And to think I used to cook red sauce for six hours from scratch... sheesh. Thanks for reading, with hugs. |

"I had missed him behind walls of device of mislain bricks. "Let us love each other tame" If Ravioli does the trick?" It is the effort, the sincerity...as much as the ravioli K. Though never hurts to have his stomach on your side huh?? I read this last night and wanted to tell ya that it was a good story to sleep on. |

It is hard to understand what makes kids enjoy some of those pre-prepared meals... I remember those days eating Chef Boyardee... yukkk M |
