Was going to make a comment about jacking kids up on sugar maybe not the best idea... but there is a couple healthy things in there... so withdrawn. :2thumbs:

This kid doesn't mind being jacked up on sugar. :lol8:

Yeah, it's a bummer when they get old enough they can run to the local store and jack themselves up. I should note my grandkids and kids are all ages 11-34.

I got the stuff for 2 of the junky treats that the kids will make, and they will also make the pear salad - one for everyone. Everything else is healthy and made from scratch. I brought in a ringer to cook and bake. :mrgreen:

We are making our kids cook thanksgiving dinner this year.. that should keep them out of trouble.. Also have pizza hut on speed dial :)

Turkey Bowl football game early to get them tired. Then let the tryptophan from the turkey take effect. :haha:
