Fruit stickers and kids!

How many times as a child did you get a piece of fresh fruit with a sticker on it? What did you do with that sticker? Well, I used to pull them off and stick them on my face, the nose seemed to be the most prevalent spot but sometimes I stuck them on my cheek or the middle of my fore head. Hey, it seemed like a grand idea at the time. If I was feeling a little daring, I would try to stick it on someone else without them knowing about it. You know, like on your Mom's butt....lol. That would keep you laughing for hours. Hey, I was easy to entertain.

However,when I see a sticker now I think of Chris. One day I was cleaning up the Leach kitchen and from a squatting position I looked up and something under the upper cabinets caught my eye. Chris had been sticking fruit labels under the cabinet for years. I mean it was loaded. Nobody ever noticed it before because there is a lip on the bottom of the cabinets and you can't see it unless you are basically sitting on the floor. I figured it was him but I didn't know for sure so I kept an eye out and a few weeks later I caught him in the act. He seemed pretty proud of himself. I was going to have him remove all of them but I let him have is fun. I wonder if they are still there or if Jean discovered the mess. I'll have to check the next time I am over there.

That is funny. Just makes me chuckle...I still love those little stickers, unless I'm cutting up an apple, and my knife does something weird because I forgot to take off the sticker, and the knife catches it.

haahha obviously you haven't seen the bottom of the cabinets in gpa's kitchen... I guess it's a Leach tradition.

I can't believe you were going to make him take them down
