I was talking to my mom last week and we were discussing overseas travel options. I have always wanted to see Ireland. It looks beautiful, plus we are Irish :) I said we should all go visit Ireland and Piper chimed in, "Yeah, then we can go kiss the famous Bologna Stone"!!! She sounded excited too. We had a good laugh over that.
Piper is absolutely OBSESSED with getting eighty dollars. She is willing to earn it, I'll give her that. But to her "earning" it means if she puts her shoes in the closet she expects money. If she brushes her teeth she expects money. If she eats her dinner... well you get it :) She wants the $80 for this big stuffed giant White Tiger that currently resides at Hallmark.
Piper has several schemes for getting the money she needs. She has picked a few of the smallest and least played with toys from her room and suggested we sell those for eighty bucks a piece. I have tried to tell her in a nice way, that her crap isn't worth that much. But she is determined and told me about her newest big idea. It all starts with cookies and lemonade. She says she will start up a lemonade stand this summer. Her plan is to sell homemade cookies for a dollar each. Reasonable, I think. But then she said that when they are thirsty from eating the cookie they just bought from her on a nice hot summer day, she will charge them 80 bucks for the lemonade!!! The old bait and switch. This kids a genius. Yes, an evil genius, but a genius none the less :D
If she really wants them to pay $80 for the lemonade then she should salt the cookies. Lol!!
