Battle of the Orange...


The stage was set.  In the background, a dramatic Tchaikovsky song was playing and skype was making noises, calling for my attention.  I held my flimsy plastic knife and stared down the orange. It couldn't be that difficult right?  After all, Grandma always make it look so easy.  Yeah, ten minutes later I was realizing just how difficult this could be.  My beautifully clean sink area of yesterday now had sticky orange juice everywhere!  Junior was happy though, feeling well-fed and that's what mattered!  I had won the battle, but now had a lot of cleaning up to do.

That is a hoot, Laura! I will have to give you a very slender, sharp knife to cut oranges with....than maybe it will be easier, but watch the fingers. LY
