- Orange segments
- Handful of Skittles leftover from Christmas candy

What Came Home?

I can hardly believe it! I told him before school that if he ate the Skittles first the orange would taste bad. This has happened to him (eating something sweet that changes the way something else tastes) so he knew what I meant. When he came home he said, "I didn't finish the candy."
"Why not?"
"You said it would make the orange taste bad so I ate that first and then I didn't want them anymore."
Score 1 for Mommy! 🙂
