So as I was cooking my healthy chicken for a few meals today I started thinking of funny memories of the baby sister and I. I often reflect on the hard times as a child, but when it was just me and the sister we had quite a bit of fun.
Once I was babysitting her and I love chicken so of course I could cook us dinner mind you I was between 10-12 years old. I had seen my parents do this a thousand times. I got the chicken out of the freezer and plopped it in the frying pan. Forgetting one important step. DEFROST! We were watching Hocus Pocus and I handed it to my sister. I was quite proud of the dinner I created, but to find out still frozen chicken in the middle. I can't remember what we ended up eating, but at least I have a funny memory.
As children our mom had a best friend who was an artist by trade. So I believe that by hanging out with her daughters it made our imagination a bit more vivid. She may say this too, but we had a red suitcase and it turned out to be a portal to the time of dinosaurs. We climbed through and the air was sticky and dense. We walked out of a cave and you could see pterodactyls flying around. I don't remember how we got back, but we had fun. This memory is so vivid, so maybe it was our imagination or maybe it happened.
Today I am feeling positive and I just need to remember that yes, my childhood was not the best in regards to adults, but as a child I had a pretty good time with my sister.
