Temptation


Taken from The Pioneer Woman blog - hilarious.

I wait until Charlie is in a deep, deep sleep. In the hot summer, his naps are are always deep.

Then I place a small morsel of food in the proximity of his nose. This happens to be a small piece of scrambled egg left over from breakfast.


REE_0412

Seconds pass with no response. So I nudge it a little closer.


REE_0416

Still no response, so I nudge it even closer. Not a wink of a reaction.

Charlie drives a hard bargain.

So I break out the big guns.


REE_0418

“The big guns”, in this case, is bacon.


REE_0419

Just a tiny sliver of bacon. But that’s usually all it takes.


REE_0420

C’mon, Charlie. Don’t let me down. Folks are watching.

REE_0424

Oh, yes. I believe it’s going to happen.


REE_0426

Oh, yeah. It’s definitely going to happen.


REE_0429

Wait…


REE_0431

Oh, no! I can’t believe it.

He’s going back to sleep?

It’s not possible!


REE_0427

Oh, ho ho ho.


REE_0434

I knew he’d come through.


REE_0465

And…


REE_0439

Three seconds later…


REE_0441

He’s back to sleep.

Charlie leads a very hard life.


REE_0449

But I wanna try the egg one last time.


REE_0450

Heh heh. See, now I’ve awakened his senses.


REE_0451

Here we go.


REE_0453


REE_0455


REE_0456


REE_0459


REE_0457

And, three seconds later…


REE_0464

He’s gone.

Fun Shopping in the Twin Cities


Looking for a new place to shop with the girls? Check out Fun Sisters - a boutique of jewelry, handbags, sandals, and more, all in bright colors and trendy styles. My sister, a lover of all things pink and colorful, got the seatbelt purse shown here.

The name of the boutique has an unique origin: the sisters were convicted of transporting counterfeit merchandise and the customs agent who brought the case against them dubbed them "the fun sisters." They're now selling legal merchandise, but it's still inspired by high end designers and sold at affordable prices. They have limited hours, but multiple locations, and definitely live up to their name!
