I am going to start by saying that I am a firm believer in organization, preparedness and all around just having my shit together.
With the kids in school and the house quite during the day...I thought that I’d get back into the swing of our ‘school year schedule.’ The kids are gone from 8AM until about 4 every day and we finally have time to get things done. Well… at least that is what is supposed to happen. Between our work, after school sports, homework, play dates and our (collectively) new addiction to the blogosphere, shit is still slipping through the cracks.
While grocery shopping the other day, I seem to have forgotten to buy cereal. When I noticed this last night, I went into “the back up storage” to fetch a box to put into the kitchen pantry. Smiling to myself, I was pleased with my preparedness…I actually HAD back-up. I rock…and the kids will eat some tasty Kellogg’s Honey Smacks!!!
13 year old Cody walked into the kitchen this morning to grab some cereal for breakfast and then he looked over at me and said, “ Um…I think this cereal is…a bit old.” I looked over at him, expecting to explain that they are NOT old and that if he wants breakfast…just to eat them. I did not say that…All I could do was laugh. Actually I burst into laughter…after spitting a bit of coffee across the room.
This is what Cody showed me.
Right...that cereal is OUT OF ITS BAG.
I guess one needs to be careful in what items go into the “back-up storage.”
What a great start to my day!!!!

LOL. Eat it or do without is what my momma told me, soooooooooooo
SWEET! Too funny, that's definitely happened in our house.
That's a wee bit disturbing.
Sweet! A Honey Smacks Krispie treat! Whats wrong with that???
That's funny. Gotta dig them honey smacks!
Its like a giant rice crispy treat!
Just think of the awesome cereal sculpture you could make.
Remind me never to eat Honey Smacks in your house...
A little damp in your back up storage methinks :P
But Joanna, don't we ALL have troubles with dampness in our backup storage now and again?
Still, I think you need to rotate your stock more regularly. This one will have to go into the discount bin.
But as others pointed out, it does look an awful lot like a big Rice Krispy treat, so I think you might be able to sell them on it as a dessert.
