Punk on "How to Make Macaroni"
We had an interesting conversation at dinner tonight. Some background:
--Punk is studying the North and South Poles in his class.
--I served macaroni and cheese (yes, from a box) to the kiddinkies tonight.
Punk: "I know how they make macaroni."
Me: "Oh really?"
Punk: "Yup. They capture a penguin (see photo of Macaroni Penguin below), lift up his hair and take out the macaroni. Then, they fry and put it in a box. Then you cook it and it becomes really small. And you can eat it."
Me: "Oh, I see. Are you sure that's how it's done?"
Punk: "Well, no, I don't really know. I's just making a prediction."

Talk To Me
I blog for myself and my kids and I would do it even if no one else cared, but I do like to hear from you (and think it's a wee bit creepy of you to voyeurize us without my knowing it). So, please leave a comment from time to time, or email me anytime at xawilsons@hotmail.com. Much obliged, I'm sure.
Stalkers, Caught Red-Handed!
