"they won't cost much, we'll make them at home"

June 17th, 2008 at 09:55 pm

this is what my daughter told the teacher after she (my daughter) offered to be in charge of bringing 12 chicken sandwiches to their "last day of school" party...
the teacher had originally asked her to bring in paper plates and chips...and when Ale offered to bring the sandwiches as well, the teacher worried it would be too much of an expense...
oh, well, they WILL be home-made, so obviously not as expensive as buying chicken sandwiches...or even buying the chicken pate to make sandwiches, since we cook from scratch!...(Ale has a good idea how much they cost, because she knows we used to sell them at 3 for $1...and this left us a profit, so...)

    Ale sounds like she has a good idea of the worth of those sandwiches. The cost is low and the generosity of donating the sandwiches is great Smile

    You have done a good job instilling in Ale the value of a dollar. You are a great mom- and Ale is a daughter to be proud of!!!
