Do you 'enjoy' spending time with your kids?
- Yes, most of the time we really have fun together
- Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's really dull and aggravating

NP: I can't believe I'm quoting Wiki but unfrigerated mom is getting villified for a simple question. FWIW I agree, I wouldn't eat unrefrigerated deli meat. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_long_will_deli_meat_and_cheese_last_unrefrigerated
[ Reply | More ]you are kidding, right? WikiAnswers? Is that supposed to convince us that what we've been doing for years is now dangerous?
[ Reply | More ]I said I couldn't believe I was quoting Wiki, but I was too lazy to Google it before. Here's one from the American Dietectic Association.
