Okay, time for Pet Peeves...........
Here's my new number one Pet Peeve. Don't get me wrong, I love kids, had two of my own and teach them all day long.....but, here's where I draw the line. I would love to go to a nice restaurant, just once, and not have my meal disturbed by a fussy child. We were sitting in Mimi's tonight and the booth next to us had a young couple with a girl about 4 years of age, (she was fine) and a young boy about two years of age. All evening he kept saying "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy" only to be ignored by his "mommy" who was trying to have a glass of wine and a nice conversation with her hubby! Hello! Can you say "McDonald's"? If you can afford to go out to a nice restaurant, you can afford a baby-sitter for a few hours! When is a restaurant, any restaurant going to have the guts to post a sign that says "Children under three not allowed", or at least have a section of the restaurant, closed off, where parents can eat with their very young children? Am I off base or what? 42
