Fairy Butts and Meatballs

Saminator has such an great sense of humour.

A couple of years ago, that clever little boy looked in a mirror when Dad pointed at it.  Dad said "look at the monkey!"  grinning at his own joke.


"All I see is an Incredible Hulk" said the cheeky 4 year old, without cracking a smile nor missing a beat.

Atta boy!

On Sunday we had dinner at my parents' place in Hagersville.

That's Hay-gers-ville, not Hah-gers-ville...for all you big city folk.

:)

Mom served a fantastic smorgasboard of culinary delights.  Among them, was a casserole that had penne noodles, tomato, onion, mushroom..and chick peas, there was salad, meatballs, sausages....it was awesome!

However, the now much more mature 6 year old Saminator, had never seen chick peas before.

"They look like bare butts!"

He's right...they do. 

Mom suggested parmesan cheese would make them taste better and he sprinkled some on.  He gave the lid of the cheese shaker a lick with his tongue before setting it down.

And recieved a mild scolding...that's pretty gross dude.

His little face dropped a bit and I leaned over to whisper..."you are right, they do look like bare butts.  Little fairy butts..."

He giggled and picked up his fork.  The cheese didn't help...he simply doesn't like little fairy butts.

That's okay.

I still like the imagination :)



Funny...smart...creative... 

My little man.

Nothing beats watching your little ones grow!
