How To Vacation With Friends Without Killing Each Other {Gadling}

Aug 28th 2012 12:41PM We shared a house down the Jersey shore one summer. One of the moms insisted that we do not take the breakfast cereals out of our car so her kids would not be tempted to be eating them. Thought it was odd for someone to be dictating my kids breakfast but in the spirit of the first day there, i agreed to keep them out of the house, assuming my kids would eat fruit, pancakes or eggs all week. The next morning, the mom who insisted on no cereal came into the house after a long healthy walk and place the mornings breakfast in front of the kids. It was donuts! Sugar donuts that had been sitting in all sorts or cooking oil only 30 minutes prior. I bit my tongue a bit but had the cereals in the house the next morning as an alternative to the greasy donuts.
