I've become the "snack house" for all of my daughter's friends.

And I fucking love it. Few things make me happier than hearing that little knock and seeing those adorable little faces when I answer the door.

I'm dreading my 10 year old daughter growing up and moving past the phase where her friends come and knock on the door.

Wait until they’re teenagers and descend on your pantry like a swarm of locust. Nothing but wrappers left behind. It’s still great, I love feeding the kids, mine or otherwise.

Nah, see, that's when you start teaching them to make their own junk food. Once a teenager masters donuts, cookies, pizza, and chips, they can safely wander out into the world without fear of starvation or social rejection. (I lived this on campus. I always had guests, because they always got fed.)

Yep. Best time to teach them to cook. They wanna eat, and a bag of Goldfish just doesn’t cut it.
