Not just any grapes tutti frutti grapes! We have normal green or even red grapes but they aren't good enough for dd -12 as Alfie and zoella buy tutti frutti grapes from waitrose. And she wants me to go and get her some now. There isn't a waitrose in my town so would have to drive to the next town. I said no and got a its not fair everyone hates me door slammed stomped upstairs another door slammed and she threw herself on her bed howling. ( period started this morning so think pmt may play a part here) anyway whilst she is having a meltdown I'm enjoying my Sauvignon blanch flavoured grapes and wondering should I check if she is ok?

I bought some Cotton Candy grapes from Waitrose today. They are very lovely but not worth a special trip.

I have one of those, bottled grapes do help us get through the darkest of days. Wine

Do you mean a pack of some red and some green grapes? Is that what tutti frutti grapes means? Anyway, you are completely unreasonable and it's so not fair.

All I can now think of is that bloody duck joke

At least she wants fruit instead of junk.

My god I thought it was just me. Candy floss grapes are to die for. I ate a whole punnet today all to myself.

I got candy floss grapes from Asda she ate all of them. They only had normal grapes today so got a pack of each for her and my special version of grapes ( needed when dealing with hormonal child) you tube has a lot to answer for!!! My budget doesn't allow for m and s or waitrose grapes!! I'm a single mum - who is not prepared to sacrifice grape juice for tutti frutti grapes. Perhaps she is right and I do hate her. Shock

Worst mum in the world.

Just laugh and ignore. Same as toddler tantrums. And sounds like some internet removal called for.

Enjoy that well deserved wine!!

So, it seems cotton candy grapes are grapes that taste like candy floss?

And WHY did none of you miserable fuckers ever think to mention this to me before, hmm? You are all RUBBISH.
