Mouth of Les Enfants

So here are few random quotes by my kids that make me laugh.

SpecK: ANOTHER OLD WOMAN ON A MOTORCYCLE?!

No pic.  That would be rude.  But the fact that she notices is hysterical.

Tween: Isn't that Chuck Norris?

The Champ: "MOM!! There is something wrong with the Rice Krispies."  This was stated to me in that urgent whisper - the same vein as, "there is a man swinging a machete in the canned foods aisle!"
All I could do is laugh and say "honey, they just look a little freaky.  It's French."

This is just plain wrong:


Tween: "What's up with all the pizza huts?"

Okay, so the Pizza the Huts are everywhere.  It is a classic food cart, roach coach, street food.  They have a tiny pizza oven inside.  Some open for 2 hours at lunch and then for dinner.  They have "What The French?" pizza toppings.  The margherita pizza has chunks of jambon on it with emmenthal.  No kidding - isn't that supposed to be tomato sauce, mozzarella and basil... red, white and green, like the colors of Italy - that country right next door?  How do you put ham on a margherita pizza?  Well they do.  So don't mess.  And potatoes.  More like a potato tart.  Still, the Tween loves to point out the pizza huts.  They are like mushrooms after a rain. Or Starbucks in Oregon.  Or petit trains en France.

And one last thing... oooh, my kids use French behind my back when they think I am not paying attention. HA!  The French always smile (so do I), when they get a little French out of the little people.  Tres bien!
