History repeats itself
I grew up in a household with two older brothers - two older brothers who liked to eat.... a lot! I remember the massive trips to the grocery store every two weeks to stock the house with food, even though it was all gone in only a matter of days. I also remember that if I, the much younger sister, wanted any chance of having a snack more than a couple days after grocery day, I had to stockpile. I specifically remember hiding Pop-Tarts in my closet. My secret stash so that I could comfortably eat my snacks at my own pace and space them out over the two week period. Well, it's happening again. It all came back to me tonight as I was hiding a box of chocolate Pop-Tarts on the top shelf of the pantry so that Dylan and Cameron wouldn't attack them. When I was younger I figured that one day I would have a house of my own and make my own rules and not have to hide my food. But nope, I'm back to hiding my own personal stash so that I can once again eat my snacks at my own pace before they're gobbled up! :)
