Me: "Ok, I'll buy everyone ONE cookie. Eamon, what kind do you want?"
Eamon: "Gingerbread. And these sea salt and vinegar potato chips."
Me: "What?! You've never had those and you don't even like stuff like that!"
Eamon: <eyes glazed over with longing> "I know but I think I really would like them now."
Me: "You can either have the chips or the cookie, not both."
Eamon: <resolutely> "Ok. Then I'll take the chips."
Me: <surprised> "Alright."
Later in the car...
Eamon: <rapturously> "These are so good!"
Me: "Glad you like them."
Eamon: "Um, mommy, can I have some water?"
Me: "Sure, here you go."
Eamon: "It's important to stay hydrated while you're eating these kinds of chips or you could get deyhydrated."
Me: "Um, I guess..."
Mark: <talking to Eamon>
Eamon: "Uh, huh... <sadly> My chips are almost gone."
Mark: "Did you hear me?"
Eamon: "I'm just going to stick my face in the bag so I can inhale their scent even though they're gone now."
My boy and his obsession with food. I can't even imagine what the teenage years will bring. ;)
