Ah, Ranee, you earn a LOT of Mom Points for making the
cake he wanted!

I figure I may not be perfect, and there may be things my
kids will complain about me when they are adults, but at
least their birthdays will always be memorable and what
they wanted.

Regards, Ranee

We had an interesting blue "food" issue when our oldest
started sucking all the blue ink out of a marker when
we turned our backs. He was about 18 months, and the
next few diapers were quite interesting. Took me a bit
to realize what was wrong.

Yes, I was quite freaked when I first saw the results of the
purple cotton candy (that was my first experience with the
effects of food dyes :-o). I thought I was very ill. Then I
remembered...

Pass the butter, please! :-)

Nope. I may[will] die from eating like a normal person.

I don't follow anything about whats good for me, whats not
good for me, what the latest craze is or any thing.

I eat what I like when I want it and how I want it. If it
kills me so be it. I'll die happy. No I am not overweight,
fat, obese or anything else.

Two years ago my niece's birthday cake was covered with
blue icing. I pooped blue for two days. It was not a
pretty sight :-D. Purple cotton candy does the same thing
to me, though the blue one is not so bad.

(Does this fall under the "too much information?"
category?)

LOL! Yes.

They have been selling guakamole <sp> flavored corn chips.
They are real green in color. I bought a 16oz bag, and as
always, I ate the whole bag all at once. The next few days
the toilet was green !!!!

I like your attitude. I am the same way. These diet/food
fads really drive me crazy. I am so sick of hearing the word
"carbs" lately. Especially since I am a car person, and
until last year, carbs means carburetors. Now people are
eating them...... yeccccchhhh....

I always how these fads get started...

( iremember taking my turn, squeezing the yellow dye
center and mixing it up with the WHITE oleo in the
sealed bag)

I remember my grandparent's cook doing this. I have never
figured out why, with a full time live in cook and a maid,
they didn't use butter!

Butter was not always available.

youth.net0189.htmlOpen ↗ I can not
give you an accurate account of the amounts allowed of each
item. It was little enough. For one person; one or two eggs
a week; 2oz. of butter per person. The wrapper of a pound
pat of butter was printed in 2 oz. segments. It was easy to
cut the allotted 2ozs. We had eight of us at home at the
beginning of the war so we would get a whole 1 lb. pat of
butter. Cheese was at 2 to 4 0zs. heavy workers got the
larger amount. Miners got other privileges also. I preferred
to eat salted margarine than butter, the rest of the familiy
had my butter ration. And so that was the pattern of things.
What one did not eat others did and there was a swapping too
with friends and neighbors. In the main the M o F. managed
rationing very well. People were not starved and the
balanced diet benifitted the whole population gaining in
health. Except for Scotland the beer was brewed weaker.
Clothing and footwear were made to a standard. All items
conforming to a war time standard had a special brand mark.
Much use was made made of factory canteens or cafes near by
the work place. Where meals could be had without
surrendering of precious food coupons.
