Yeah… we kinda had a set rate, and most folks didn’t bother paying that.

I think we’ll try a few things different next time and see how it goes. I think the dinner before idea is good. And just ask everyone to bring a bag of chips/desert and a bottle of soda.

I’m not a brownie fan. Girl Scouts are OK because they sell me cookies.

Neither are as tough as Gnomes, though.

Brownies are delicious.

Damn cheap bastards!!! You should establish that each parent should pay a set rate for each child and then also chip in money for food on top of that. . . or just start at a post dinner hour as you previously suggested.

You’re talking about babysitters with someone who doesn’t have children. All I can really tell you is what I said above. That and what I was given to pay the babysitter was less than I think it should have been.

Then again, I gave all the cash I was given to the babysitter and, at this point, I paid for all the food out of my own pocket.

Not to be too intrusive but what is too much for a babysitter? Is there a price on the care and welfare of one’s children? Oh, and free food for a babysitter is standard fare. When one has someone babysit and food is needed the babysitter eats for free. That is all if you have a smart babysitter who knows the standards if you don’t and then you can fleece her/him but then is that right? I leave that for you to judge.
