Conversation of the Week

In a restaurant as my 2-years-old neice does this funny trick where she stands on her chair and then wobbles just a little bit so all the adults grab for her while audibly sucking in their breath:

Adults:  -- GASP! --

Daughter 2:  Uh-oh, fruit loops.  No.  Wait.  Uh-oh, pop-tarts.  (tilts her head to the side)  No.  What is it? Uh-oh, oreos.  No.  (scratches her head)  Wait.  Ummm... Uh-oh, ravioli!  No.  Dang it!  Uh-oh... what is it?

My sister:  "Uh-oh, any processed food marketed to kids"!

Daughter 2:  No.  That's not it either.  I think it might be...  What is it??

My sister:  Spaghettio!  Uh-oh SPAGHETTIO!

Daughter 2:  Yeah.  That's it.  You're a smart one, Aunt Lanie!
