The Toasted Oat Enemy
I always hated when I would be semi-busy and a family with several young children came in. This meant a few things:
- Scrambling for a highchair.
- Cleaning said highchair.
- Preparing for a barrage of cereal on the floor.
There is something about cheerios especially that makes babies love to throw them all over the floor. Seems like parents are always totally unaware that it is happening too.
I’ve walked up to many tables that looked like a Cheerio A-Bomb went off with mass casualties. Of course what usually happens is, the party leaves, and none are picked up. So that means I’ve got to pull out the sweeper, and lose some precious dignity by crawling on the floor.
But of course they leave an extra tip for the additional cleaning involved, right? WRONG!
