The Ambitions Sour Cream

I assume Rachael is a typical child who needs equal amounts of play time and eating time at the dinner table. We do not allow toys at the table so she has to be creative. Since Rachael has never been inhibited by the intended uses of something, this has never been a problem.

Tonight we had tacos for dinner, including sour cream. Here is a list of all the uses Rachael found for this humble, unassuming condiment.
1. make it the main (and only) course
2. a bathtub for her tomatoes
3. a bed for the tomato seeds to sleep in
4. daubed on a spoon to use as a weapon against mom (poison-tipped spear?)
5. slime to fling from her spoon and hands
6. mud to squeeze through her fingers
7. make-up to smear on her face
8. while she was at it, might as well make it a whole face mask
9. paint to rub all over her arms
10. medicine to put on her owies

All this occurred in less than 15 mins. And I might add, much of these came from Rachael's own lips when we asked, "Rachael, what are you doing? Can't you just eat?"
And finally,
11. make-up, paint, mud, or anything else to smear on mommy as she tried to get Rachael clean.

Who knew sour cream could be so versatile?
