My daughter was made Chef of the Day. :) Our waitress (Merilee) brought her a certificate, and a cupcake decorating kit to decorate her own cupcakes. My daughter was thrilled.
Ignorant mom notices this, and demands to know where the the cupcakes are for her kids. Why does THAT girl get one. Merilee explains the Chef of the day to the SG, who remains unsatisfied. to Placate her the waitress brings out 3 cupcakes, and the decorating stuff, all on one plate, for the kids to share. this apparently is not good enough. What follows happened while I was on a return trip to the buffet, and was witnessed by my Mom:
While two of the sisters make a mess with thier cupcakes, the one sitting closest to my daughter reaches over, and HELPS HERSELF to my daughters cupcake toppings, grabbing a big handfull of sprinkles!

After stuffing these in her mouth, she reaches back for more! At this point the Ignorant Mom grabs her by the arm and pulls her back. But not a word is said by the SG to her kid.

My Mom is speechless. My daughter is so enthralled with her cupcake project she did not even notice. When I return to the table, Mom asks me to put my arm across the table, and block the Ignorant Kid from more grabbing, which I see was about to happen. We remove the topping the moocher contaminated and block my happy kid from the intrusions by the ignorant family. After some arguing with the waitress about the bill, the other family finally leaves! It appeared they wanted to get my DDE discount applied to their bill too !
Through all this the SG mother has not said a single word to my family, and not a polite word to Merilee her server. Merrilee handled this with much grace and professionalism. and far more patience than the Ignorant Family deserved.
Kudos to Merilee! I hope I am spelling her name correctly!
