A new game

Last night, Allie decided to play "9 1/2 Weeks" with her daddy. She didn't call it that, but Allie asked her dad to play a game and had him sit on the floor with a towel over his eyes while she fed him various substances to see if he could identify them.

He tried a grape, a peanut M&M, a piece of Kix cereal, a grape tomato, a Tic Tac, coffee (Allie was getting some help by this point), yogurt, a Girl Scout cookie, cream cheese, and finally a dill pickle. The pickle was what did Greg in. He didn't immediately identify what it was and something about it grossed him out, so he was done.

Julia, meanwhile, fell asleep on the couch again after dinner. She only sometimes naps now and her body is not necessarily still running strong by 6:30 p.m. or so. To say that she's crabby when you wake her up is an understatement. She hit Greg, who was only trying to be sure that she'd be able to sleep when it was bedtime.

And our family watched another couple of episodes of "How Clean Is Your House." Just another Thursday night in the Lee household.
