"You're getting huuuungrrryyyy......"

On Sunday after we got home from church, Seth came into the kitchen.

"Mom, can I have one of those 'hypnotizers'?"

I was stumped by that one. "A what?"

"You know," he said, "the thing you eat before lunch so you won't be as hungry."

"Oh..." I replied, "you mean an 'appetizer.'"

"Yes, that's it."

As I didn't have any crudites on hand, he had to just suffer until I got lunch on the table 20 minutes later.
