Feeding the Masses
It's finally time to go home. Road trip after the family vacation. We're at my in-law's, where I'm packing lunches. Ham and swiss sandwiches for me and the Gingerbread Man. Jelly sandwich for Samuel.
"Will, do you want a ham sandwich or peanut butter and jelly?"
"Just bread."
"Ham in a bag to go with that?"
"Yes."
"Ok."
So I pack up two ham and swiss sandwiches and one jelly sandwich, then put the jelly knife in the sink, the ham and cheese away, the bread back.
And forget to pack anything for Will.

Foraging for scraps is a life skill.
Some of us learn it earlier than others!
