I think

[jbcbj]

....for the following. This morning at Tumble Tots (ok, probably first crime there but in my defense DD has more energy than a herd of kangaroos high on lucozade and she LOVES it. So I take her.) there was a birthday and they had brought in Haribo. I declined to take some for DD (she was not bothered) and in the car I gave her a flapjack and an organic rice cake. KNOBBER ALERT - I am so glad no-one saw me refuse haribo for flapjacks. And they were Graze Box flapjacks, too.

[jbcbj]

that was meant to be titled I think I am officially a knobber...

even more apt now [hblush]

[JeremyVile]

I don't get it.

[FoundWanting]

Not a proper knobber unless you exclaimed loudly, in your best mummy voice, "Oh, no darling. Not nasty Haribo. We don't eat those, do we, darling? No, we'll have a scrummy Organic rice cake, won't we? So delicious. Not like those nasty old sweeties."

Posting about it deos make you a knobber.

[itisnearlysummer]

YANBU for the very fact you bought flapjacks and did not make them yourself. A la me. [smug emoticon]

I had a very upset DD in playground this morning when I confessed she had tuna mayo sandwiches in her lunchbox rather than couscous and falafel. "But I wanted falafel and couscous!" was to be heard wailing across the playground.

I think I am also a too. [hgrin]

[jbcbj]

so only a semi-knobber, then. must try harder [hgrin]

Was it one of them flapjacks from that company online? If so you are vu! My mum got some the other week as people at work were raving about them.. They are awful tasteless crap!

Oh bugger meant to do [hwink]

[catinboots]

Here have a medal OP.

Well done you.

[jbcbj]

's ok crapola, i truly am! although slightly reduced because i whispered my haribo refusal and explained that it made dd hyper. as dd was currently doing wall-of-death around the hall i think they understood....[hgrin]

hellospoon, yes, they were graze box flapjacks. i think they taste nice (so does dd, she mugs me for the box every tuesday!).

[jbcbj]

ooh, cat, a medal! i love medals for self-deprecation, i'll hang it with the rest!

[CrapolaDeVille]

You're just one of those buying sliced/chopped veg and ready made flapjack folks.....we have nothing in common!! [hwink]

[LilBB]

You are a knobbier for not taking the haribo then eating it yourself whilst DD had organic whatever. I love it when DD comes home with a party bag for me to raid.

[LilBB]

That should say Knobber. Stupid autocorrect.

[Chandon]

yuk to factory made flapjacks...

I never let my kids have coca cola. So one day, when they were with their grandparents, they guzzled 6 cans each without anyone noticing (WTF?!) and projectile vomited all night.

That was a lesson for them, and a lesson for me.

...and you?

[IroningBoardForSurfBoard]

what LilBB said about taking the haribo and eating yourself.

def a knobber for NOT doing that

[jbcbj]

crapola - i squeeze my own oranges, does that count? and make cakes for me to eat

LilBB - damn, i didn't think of that. I have just finished all her easter chocolate, so I could have done with something else... Definitely a knobbier knobber...

Chandon - sorry, but [hgrin] !! The thought of dd on cola brings tears to my eyes.
