5 Buck Pizza

Me: OK, kids, you guys get 5 Buck Pizza and I am going to have wanton soup for lunch.

Xan: Why aren't you eating 5 Buck Pizza, mom?

Me: Because 5 Buck Pizza makes my bum really big and I want to have a little bum.

Xan: Oh -- that's too bad.

Me: It's alright, I really like wanton soup.

Xan: It's not too bad for you, it's too bad for me. I really like big bums!

(I have to say, this little conversation made my day!)

Your kids are adorable. I'll be down tomorrow (thursday) and I'll drop your book off. What's with the rating system that suddenly appeared on my blog today. I didn't sign up for it. Am I a pilot program for Google.

I've updated the post to include the names of the Legends--Some of them weren't in your book. Thanks for everything -the loan of the camera, the name of the book, the fun visit but especially the Zina snuggles. Have a great Mother's Day.

Ladies - You have to train them young. I have always told Xan that women like Venus are beautiful but tricky. (Actually, he says that Venus is the goddess of love and sulfuric acid.)
