Everything is going up in price! $108.00 for a plastic meal!! OUCH! (an archive)

So I realized that Rylie may become a pretend money millionaire by the time she is 10. We were in her room, playing restaurant. She has the double sided kitchen that has the little window (makes for a great "drive thru"). So she said I could have whatever I wanted on the menu, but only if she knew how to make it. I wasn't allowed to order a soda because they only served water or tea (atta girl). I placed my order very carefully, taking my cue from the littlest chef who advised me if it was what 'I' wanted or 'not a very good choice' .It was also a "do it yourself" kind of restaurant kitchen as when the chef had to take a potty break, 'I' as the customer, made sure my chicken didn't burn. When the littlest chef returned, I placed the spatula on the counter of the play kitchen. The chef turned to me with a funny look on her face and said, "That is NOT where that goes.... do you see the hook right here? It has to be put back in its place". Um, okay?! ... I apologized, but then I was booted from the restaurant kitchen anyway. She said she would call my number when my dinner was ready. As I waited in the "gift shop", also known as the living room, I heard the numbers being called one by one. I was given number 10 (which by the way I had to fight for because I was originally given a number that would have still not been called 2 hours later) So, I hear my number.... "Number 10... your order is ready....calling number 10.... your order is now ready...... wooo hooo... number 10!!! Order is ready....hellooooooooo.... number 10 COME GET YOUR ORDER"!!!! She had the cutest little twaing in her voice when saying it too. I had to compose myself before walking into 'RJ's Cafe' (which I did very well... THANK YOU VERY MUCH). As I went to pay for my meal the register rang up at $108.00. I thought to myself... GENIUS! I gave her $200.00 and received no change. She closed the restaurant kitchen after she was done and advised me I would also need to do my own dishes and put everything back in its proper place. What a concept! I love it!!! This is WAY better than a lemon aide stand.
