Mid-afternoon Army and I were hand delivered invitations to a dinner tonight. The invitations were hand written, personalized, and they were detailed. At the appropriate time, Army and I made our way to that party.
We didn't have to go too far to get there...just up the stairs to the playroom. When we made it there, our hostess with the mostess, Linus, surprised us. She had soft music playing, a table set perfectly, dimmed lights, and fancy napkins that she made. She presented us with a hand-written menu complete with prices and pictures to go with each item.
Army and I oooh'd and ahhh'd and finally made our selection. While we waited for our dinner to cook, we were presented with imaginary tea, which Linus poured for us, tea cookies, and soup. Linus joined us for dinner while Lolly happily bounced in her Johnny Jump-Up.
After dinner, Linus told us the dessert list. She highly recommended the Cinco de Mayo Sundae, and she stood back and tall while we made our selections. We both chose the sundae, which was imaginarily delicious, and then the three of us enjoyed the music and conversation.
Who knew dinner prepared by a six year old could be so delicious and fun?

Awwwwwwwwwwwww.
I think I need a kindergartener around here!
Fantastic! What a sweetie.
When I was a kid, my sister and I actually set up a "restaurant" on the back deck one summer, and made my parents pay actual money for food we bought on credit at the local store (which they also paid for, of course). We had a menu, a name (The Golden Cardinal) and things like Jell-O and chicken nuggets. lol.
So sweet!
Oh is she the cutest??!!
I have got to show this post to my teenagers. Even if it's imaginary at the very least she put forth a great effort. My girls could use that lesson....
How sweet! I love them at that age. I really do miss that.
That is adorable.
