Pretty Dishes

On my grandmother's last visit, we went to a second-hand shop and she bought some ice cream dishes. She thought it was very important to eat ice cream from a proper dish. The other night I gave the kids ice cream in the dishes - along with chocolate syrup and chocolate muffins. They'd played so nicely together after school I thought I'd make it a nice surprise.

I think the dishes made the ice cream even more special.

But not the sugar high they had afterward, and just before bed. Since then I've made the rule of no dessert on a school night. We'll see how that goes...
