So, there are moments when I flash back to my childhood and remember events in my life. Lots of times there is a Deja Vu moment, to whit the Kizzles do something that is eerily familiar or elicits a response very similar to that of my parents. Also I have found myself doing things that bring on the "Oh I just did something my parents did!" It is quite an interesting psychological experience.
This was one of those moments...
Last night, the Queen made excellent homemade mashed potatoes. They were the purple potatoes and she leaves the skin/rinds in... (for extra fiber for the Editor! I can't get enough!!!). Also, the though (as I found out later) that the purple coloring would make for an alluring Kizzle dinner.
Well, the Kizzles weren't having it tonight. (Which meant more for the Editor, since these were phenomenal!)
But in order to get to desert (which was equally phenomenal homemade carrot cake!) each Kizz had to clean their plate. (Tonights dinner also included meatloaf, a staple in the Editor's childhood!) This included a spoonful of mashed potatoes.
Each Kizz tried the potatoes....
Mila didn't get it on her fork....
Coco got a bite to his tongue and spit it out... "yucky!"
Pizz got a biteful in her mouth! "good girl! That's my big girl!" I turn away and hear a "wha-hack!" cough cough cough "whahack!!!" Oh my gosh what did she do... As I turn back around, and see that she has gagged and vomited back up the mashed potatoes on her plate...
Lovely!
Needless to say... she didn't get her desert!
(for those not in the know... picture this scene replayed about 30 years ago... Editor playing the role of the Pizz... and the role of mashed potatoes is played by an "angel on horseback"!!!.... To this day, I cannot eat an oyster....)
