Tonight our school had a Fundraiser at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse. This was the perfect excuse for me to not cook, so we went and it was a delightful evening.Megan ordered the kid's macaroni and cheese with a side of mashed potatoes ...
Megan: I get potatoes mixed up with, uh, what's that red fruit that people think is a vegetable?
Me: Tomatoes?
Megan: Yeah, I get potatoes and tomatoes mixed up.
Me: Well, whatever you do, don't order mashed tomatoes. I don't think they would taste as good as mashed potatoes.
Megan: Blank stare.
After eating about 4 bites of her dinner, Megan kept saying the following phrase while looking at Henry, who was conversing with Amanda ...
Megan: Ugh, I'm full.
Henry: No reaction.
Megan (even louder): Ugh! I'm FULL!
Henry: Still no reaction.
Megan: UGH! I'M FULL.
Henry: Nothin'.
Me: Why do you keep saying that? Are you trying to get a reaction from Dad?
Megan smiling all sinister like: Mom, you're reading my mind!
Me: Ha!
Megan: Mom, do you think I could get a refill on these mashed toma ... I mean, potatoes if I finish them all?
Me: I doubt it.
Megan: Will you ask the guy when he comes back if I can have a refill?
Me: Maybe.
Megan: Mom, whenever you say 'Maybe', you always mean 'No'.
Me: And now YOU'RE reading MY mind!
We love BJ's and my daughter does love her mashed potatoes and they probably would have given her more, but I would NEVER ask...to chicken.
ReplyDeleteAmy ~ She only got through 1/2 of her mashed potatoes, so I (thankfully) didn't have to go there. :)
