Hahaha sugar crash! I guess that’s what happens at the end of the day
Wei-Wei
I love these posts Mara!! I have never even been to Enchanted Castle – can you believe it?!
What crazy child doesn’t like pizza!!?? Oh right – mine doesn’t. I guess that’s why he brought a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to eat there.
Haha… i love your kid though
I had one camper just eat the cheese off 4 pieces of pizza and one eat only the crust. Kind of symbiotic…
I love these posts! When I was little I told my dad I didn’t like Chinese food. He told me “You’re Jewish, yes you do.” Lo and behold, he turned out to be right!

I tweeted this but DANG – I remember Enchanted Castle growing up. We’d go there about once a month. I saved up tickets forever and bought a stoplight that actually worked and some earrings and something else. Ah, memories. Good to know it still exists!
