NOT Singing for Sundaes

I spent half of dinner promising sundaes for dessert.  I'm not ashamed to admit that is how I got both children to eat an entire plate of vegetables, and it was mostly because I really wanted to show off the bottle of Chocolate Magic Shell I bought at the store.  When I was shopping way off any semblance of a shopping list.  I thought it would be cool.

It only took 45 minutes of begging and shoveling forkfuls of room-temperature veggies into two small distracted mouths, but finally I had all the dinner dishes and I was in the kitchen making sundaes.  Audrey joined me, of course, because that's what she does.

She was over by the table, dancing in circles and singing to herself.  Obviously, I figured it was because I was holding some awesome magic chocolate in my hand, but I was wrong - very wrong.


There was a small red box in her hands as she twirled.  I almost missed it.  Then I heard her song and one coherent English word: RAISINS!


She took the opportunity while I was busy making SUNDAES to sneak herself a box of RAISINS.


WHO IS THIS CHILD?
