Flying Food

For years Dave has been talking about how he and his Dad (Tata to Drew) had a food fight in LA for Dave's 30th birthday and his Dad's 50th.  All this time, Drew asked to have a food fight too, and Dave said when you turn 10 we'll talk about it.

Well - now that Drew was turning 10 the time was now.  Drew never let Dave forget this promise and it was time for Dave to put up.  So he did.

Last weekend, Dave baked and prepped food for 2 days getting ready for Drew's impromptu 10th Birthday food fight.  Drew and 5 friends teamed up to toss pies, pudding, cake and donuts.  I on the other hand wanted nothing to do with this mess-maker.

Drew was allowed to get Dave first with a lemon meringue pie and then it was on like Donkey Kong!

While it took Dave between 24-48 hours to prepare, the entire thing was over in minutes.

Drew had a blast. The other kids had a blast.  Dave had a good time - and cleaned up all of the mess.

I'd call this mission successful. 

Drew is already talking about doing this with his kids someday - especially since Dave wouldn't commit to doing this again in 20 years.
