Luke: I'm glad I don't have a tail. I wouldn't like to have one.
Me: Why not?
Luke: Because, I don't like tails. And I would miss my butt.

Foodie Lukey

Luke picks up phrases from all of his favorite cooking shows (He is OBSESSED with Giada, and his 'ol stand-by is Rachel Ray. He likes to watch Paula Deen once in a while, too). My Dad watched the boys this night so we could go out and get some Christmas shopping done, and while we were gone, he gave my dad a little foodie wisdom. My dad told me about these afterwards.

"Ya know pepperoni has pepper in it, but salami has a pound of all purpose flour in it."

On mac & cheese...
"If you don't have any cheese, then you just have mack-in!"

And a bonus from another day....

Luke started his cooking show obsession with 30 Minute Meals over a year ago, so Rachel's silly lingo has become a sort of cooking standard for him. He has since moved on to loving Giada for some reason, and one day while we were watching her he said..."Mom, why doesn't she call it EVOO?"

Weird, I smell roses.

Luke: Mom, you can be my wife!

Me: I'm already Daddy's wife, bud.

Luke: Who can be my wife?

Me: When you grow up you will find a girl that you really love the most and she will love you the most and you'll think, I want to get married to her!

Luke: Oh. But if a girl loves me the most and she is ugly I will say, no I am not getting married to you!

Me: What kind of babies do you think you'll have? Boys or girls?

Luke: I want two handsome boys and 1 girl!

Me: You know what, that's exactly what I want! I already have the two handsome boys. What will you name yours?

Luke: Cilantro and Wolverine. And maybe Cyclops.

Not so good at jokes.

Luke DESPERATELY wants to be good at telling jokes, but he isn't quite there. I still laugh at them, just witnessing how his little mind works. Here's a few examples from a day when we were telling jokes back and forth....

Luke: knock knock

Me: who's there?

Luke: fruit punch!

Me: fruit punch who?

Luke: Salad!

Luke: Why did the hanger go to the ice cream truck?

Me: I don't know, why?

Luke: Because he didn't have any pizza! Get it?

Passing Applebee's...

Luke: Mom, are there bees in there?

Me: No, I hope not!

Luke: Are there apples?

Me: Probably

Luke: Is that why they picked the name of it? All the bees on those apples?

Most likely.

Hope you have a very sweet holiday! :)
