Lies Told About Me In Print
By Susan Mercedes. Filed in Family, Food |I hate to cook. I avoid it at all costs. I’ve been like this my entire life.
Last night I was surprised when Elle decided to pull out her journal from a few years back. She’s 10 now, so she would have been 8 years old when she wrote it.
She decided to read something out loud to me.
Elle’s journal entry:
It states:
Last night my mom made the best dinner and she is not a chef at all. She made chicken, carrots, and potatoes. It was like my dad made it and he’s a chef. YUM!
I DON’T BELIEVE IT!
If I *must* cook, it’s rarely good enough for a journal entry. This makes me think Elle exaggerated. By exaggerated, I mean lied.
But I really think this story is a lie because I HATE COOKED CARROTS. I’d never make them as part of a meal.

Yeah that kinda sounds like the menu at an old-folks home. She wrote it hoping you’d discover it and then buy her something. Freaken genius!
