Captain Jelly Belly, looking for a cereal snack: “Oh no…we’re out of bowls.”
Me: “Just use anything. A tupperware container or a mixing bowl or whatever.”
CJB: “No, that’s dumb, forget it.”
Me: “Don’t be silly. Use a soup bowl. They are basically the same size as a cereal bowl.”
CJB: “No way! They’re much bigger!”
Me: “They just look like that because of their shape. They’re really not that big. We only call them soup bowls because we have soup in them, but really they were MADE for cereal.”
CJB: “Really? Are you sure?”
Me: “Yup.”
CJB: “Hm…okay.”
(gets soup bowl, fills it with cereal and milk, sits down to eat)
Me to Gal Smiley: “Oh my God, have you SEEN the ENORMOUS bowl of cereal the captain is eating?”
Gal Smiley: “That is just INSANE.”
CJB: “You people are THE WORST.”
And scene.
Siblings. Nothing like ’em.
Huh, funny, my first reaction was “a Tupperware? That’s weird!” And I don’t even know what I thought that, I mean, it’s a container, same as a bowl!
The question is, where did all the bowls go???
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Can’t wait until Angus is home and Eve and I can do this again.
