"Mom, there's no food in the house"

In order to prove my children wrong, that we DO indeed have food in the house, I emptied out a majority of my pantry onto our kitchen table to show them how much food we have.

"Lots of food," I say. Just look at it all.


What I didn't realize was that we had 5 boxes of cereal that had a mere 1/2 cup of cereal in the bottom, and did we really need 5 cans of kidney beans? Oh, and here's a container of rice that's been in here way too long and WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THAT??? ....eeew, a sweet potato that needed to be eaten LAST month. So, I admit it, we didn't have much left to eat in our pantry after all. But ain't it purdy??? Jill
