Is Grandma Ruth off her rocker?!

Marley's wonderful Grandma Ruth watches her every Tuesday because that is the day I work. Usually, we will have dinner together when everyone gets home from work. One day we had a really special dinner....it was very, um, interesting!! Ruth had made chicken pot pies and colorful looking cup cakes (or so we thought!!) We started to become frightened when we realized the chicken pot pies were cold (I mean, who wants to eat that cold?!) and wondered why she was serving dessert right in the middle of dinner. She encouraged us to eat our food, and as we did, our taste buds became confused! The "chicken pot pie" was actually dessert made of pudding, start bursts, bananas, apples, and skittles, and the colorful "cupcakes" were actually little meatloaf cakes with mashed potatoes as frosting! I think the hardest thing for us to get over was the mashed potatoes because we expected it to taste sweet!! I thought that this was such a great and creative way to play an April Fool's joke!
When Ruth showed me these pictures, I realized how she's able to watch Marley all day on Tuesdays and not go crazy....
Marley loves to crawl in to Ruth's dog's kennel to check out the water bottle or to try and eat the dog food (yuck!)...the only thing is, she can't seem to figure out how to get herself back out!!
