Gal Smiley and Sir Monkeypants at dinner last night; Gal is finished eating, but is still working on his food.

GS: Let’s play hide and seek!
SM: Gal, I’m still eating.
GS: I’ll go hide! You count!
SM: Okay, you go “hide.” One, two… [trails off to take a bite]
GS [from the playroom]: THREE!
SM: Three…
GS: FOUR!
SM: Four…
GS: Now come and find me in the playroom!

Too cute to be denied — his dinner got cold.
