(Yes. The Answer is Yes.)
My name is Debbie. (Hello Debbie.)I overcooked my family. (Welcome to overcooked anonymous, Debbie.)
The nice thing about being here, with other parents at OA, is that I learn how to take the 5th again. (We’re glad you’re here, Debbie.)My two kids were in the kitchen yesterday, rolling like chicken wings in flour. Practically laughing too hard to ask me, “You don’t remember?”
“Mommmm! I am sooooo glad that I learned how to lie to you or I would have been the nerdiest kid in high school!!” Marissa continued chuckling while I scraped myself off the ceiling. “Don’t…..” bwah-hah… “let mom…..” bwah-hah… “do this to you Kyle.”
Kyle who begins his freshmen year in three weeks, stopped rolling. “Whhhat? You made Marissa take that great big white huge clunky air purifier to a party when she was in high school? Whhhy?”
“Because I’m allergic to cats and the person who was throwing the party had cats. I told mom that I’d be fine. But noooo. When my date pulled up, she stuck that old round thing in his arms. The dumb thing was so ginormous it didn’t even fit inside his pick-up truck. So he laid it in the back. When he turned the corner we heard a clunk-clunk-clunk. The thing had flown out of his truck and rolled into a field! The whole time we looked for it, I kept thinking to myself - ‘thanks mom… you’re sort of ruining my cool image here’!”
Today’s Life Recipe: There are several ways to clear the air —– trusting is one of those.
WATCH THE 2 MINUTE VIDEO of this funny, air purifier story ala Sonoma Chicken Salad.














At least u allowed her to attend the party… with the condition she brings the air purifier along. hahaha
I can understand why you aren’t as “happy” as I am about the kids returning to school. If we lived closer you could “borrow” my kids for a day or two and then you might rethink the back to school thing! ha ha
What a funny story. Your friend may have taken that corner extra hard to make sure he lost the air purifier. lol
How funny is this story…Oh, all I can say about your cooking show is….Paula Deen & Rachael Ray move over…I think I found someone I enjoy watching a little better! You are so entertaining. Have you ever thought about trying out for the next Food network star??? You would get my vote…I am trying out that chicken salad for sure….Love your show!
You gave it your best shot. Apparently, the driver’s was a tad better! LOL!
Let’s see if this works.
An air purifier? Man! I’m guessing that was their only date?
How funny! Definitely overcooked your daughter on this one! At least you learned your lesson!
Oh, Debbie, that was hilarious! Her friends probably still talk about that one, huh?
You had me cracking up from the start with the picture and the story just kept the laughs coming! That is too funny!
Love your chicken recipe too. I haven’t heard of adding the poppy seeds and the honey. I’m gonna have to try it~ Maybe tonight. I think I’ll go buy a rotiserie chicken so I don’t have to cook!
I can’t believe you did that! The poor girl.
oh lolol! oh, and i’m loving the picture!
But…I don’t get it…isn’t the whole point of parenthood to ruin your children’s chances of ever looking cool or being in or running with the right crowd? That’s how I figured it at my mother’s unbendable fun spoiling knee, anyway!
