Midlife Moms Pod

In this episode Melanie and Allison discuss just how excited they are to learn which bug their child will be assigned for the annual "First Grade Bug Project." Allison begins the episode by explaining her one single rule of the insect project: "Anything but the cockroach!" In this episode we'll learn just how roach-phobic Allison really is and how her negotiations with the teacher didn't go unnoticed.  

We continue our discussion of fears with Melanie explaining her fear of sharks and how she married her husband even though he purposely took her on a shark ride at Universal. She also tells us why she doesn't like playgrounds.

Allison also talks about how much she hates balloons and how she found out she was allergic to latex.

(26:37) The ladies change gears to focus more on their favorite things of life which include Cadbury Mini Eggs, chocolate, and a can of Regular Coke (the soda). It's here where we first learn that Melanie is allergic to corn which is basically found in almost every kind of food. This prompts Allison to ask Melanie if she could eat the bunny cake she's making for her son for Easter this weekend. We continue on the favorite food trail and talk about loving regular Coke (the soda) and popsicles.

(34:47) Wouldn't it be great to sit on the beach and drink a big 52 ounce soda from Kangaroo like we did in college? It would but then we get back to discussing what it's like to have household chores that need to be done and kids that need to be fed. Sigh.
