Just BUY the GOOD peeler.

Friends,

This is a PSA.  A VERY important one at that.... Read on.

We recently were at the beach with our extended family.  We stayed in an absolutely lovely home from VRBO.  We were making dinner (for 15 humans!) which is no small feat. 

Now, HERE... I have decided to call my husband "The Beast".  1.  Because that's adorable, 2.  Because we are Disney loving girls, and Beauty and the Beast is BY FAR my favorite! 

SO... The Beast and I are making gumbo, of all things... if you've ever made gumbo for 15 people, hungry, at the beach...It's not easy...or quick.  The gumbo was delicious. 

(Some insight on my husband... he is argumentatively one of the best cooks I know... but super humble about it, and always his worst critic.)

Anyway... we had finished dinner, and one of the kid's wanted mango.  I went into the drawers and there were literally 6 peelers... 6!!!... Why anyone would have that number of peelers, I'm not even sure.  But, I went through 3... and they were all awful.  The 4th one (finally a mango success!) was the one I was able to use.  Literally in THAT moment... I started thinking about life.  Here's the conclusion I came to... we need to take better care of ourselves, y'all.  Start buying "the good peelers," and doing things that work the FIRST TIME.  And work well.  In every aspect of our lives.  Get rid of the clutter and only keep what is GOOD and USEFUL in your life.

Inspiration can come from weird places, y'all.  But when it hits... listen.  

Truly yours,

Unconditionally Mommy
