That nails it. When I come back, I'm going to grow up in your kitchen.

p.s. The guy who invented Pixie Sticks lived down the street from us when I was in elementary school. I was part of his test team. No lie. And, you are welcome.

He also invented King Stirs which were kind of pixie sticks hardened into a shape on the end of a stick that was a straw. You got a glass of water and stirred it with the King Stir and bingo! you had a grape or cherry or strawberry drink and a cool straw to drink it with. Those never got off the floor of the lab, I guess because glasses broke and so we weren't allowed to use them for snacks. So we just licked the King Stirs which got the pixie stick stuff all over us and our clothes and we had stained blue and/or red faces. Not a Mom pleaser. Oh well. Win some. Lose some.
