I know some of you as parents often bribe your children to get them to succumb to your will. I rarely have to do that with my child, as she will pretty much do whatever I tell her to. Sure, she moans and groans a little, but what 8-year-old wants to clean her room or take a bath? That being said, we had to do major grocery shopping and since she didn't want to go, I bribed her with a stop off at Braum's for a banana split. My daughter then informed me she had never had a banana split and I was appalled! How could I have deprived my girl of such a wonderful treat? I immediately took her to the nearest Braum's (25 miles away) and we waited in line for a good 15 minutes, which was fine because the people-watching in Braum's is PHENOMENAL. We shared this beautiful banana split:
In approximately 6.4 seconds, it looked like this:
It was a feeding frenzy! People were staring with mouths agape and neither one of us cared! Total abandon! We didn't eat like ladies in the slightest, but we did wipe our mouths delicately when we were finished and got up and exited the store gracefully. And miserable.
