Our pantry


Our pantry is FULL or drink boxes. Everything from yogurt to orange juice to peach nectar to flavored milk, if the kids see a drink box, they've got to have it. We put them on the bottom shelf so they can get to them easily, but sometimes it is a bit too easy. One by one they disappear, until halfway through the week 20 drink boxes are gone (and they are only home from about 4 pm to 8 pm!). Honestly. Some weeks they go through close to 50 of those things. And at 50 cents a pop, we're talking big bucks here. Just in liquids! The cashiers at the grocery store probably think we're selling those things outside of the schools. They always look at us like we're crazy!
