No meat Friday and I am not making breaded or battered fish! I am going on strike for the day.

Macaroni salad: spiral macaroni, chopped celery, chopped sweet pickle, chipped carrot, minced onion, hard-cooked eggs, tuna fish, miracle whip; paprika on top.

Stuffed eggs: hard-cooked eggs, miracle whip, chopped sweet pickle, minced onion; paprika on top.

Tuna salad hoagies: toasted hoagie rolls, lettuce, tomato, onion and cheese - tuna fish, chopped sweet pickle, minced onion, miracle whip.

Any complaints - I will stuff celery with tuna and serve it for dessert!

And if they complain about that - Saturday I will make a Tuna Noodle Casserole! And I will serve it with tomatoes stuffed with tuna fish!

Best of all - IT WORKS! Eat it - or do it yourself and clean the mess!! Works everytime! The kitchen HAS to be cleaned to my specifications - OR ELSE.

Maybe that is where the "Witch" comes in my name! LOL

I bet my children would love for us to trade names. LOL I here that name mumbled under their breathes occasionally. I can not wait for them to have their own families and do the same things. My husband and I adopted a 14 and a 17 year old and it has def. been an adjustment getting them used to clenaing up after themselves.

That's a tough age to try to teach!!!!

But keep after them - someday they will appreciate it - maybe not until they go through it with their own children - but they will appreciate it!!

I was raised in a strict household and it just comes natural for me. In all honesty - I am a push-over - but I can play the toughie roll good enough that they obey! And everyone knows there are huge rewards when they listen and learn!!
