Gourmet chef, that's me!

For your blog entertainment, here is a transcript of last night's dinner conversation. Enjoy!

Abigail - "Wow, Mom, this is such a good dinner!"

Me - "Well, good. I'm glad you like it."

A - "I mean, I love broccoli. And this fruit salad is good too! So, what's this other stuff? It's yummy."

Me - "You know, I've never made it for ya'll. I worked extra hard on it, but really didn't think you'd like it."

A - "Well, what do you call it?" (with a mouthful)

Me - "It's a funny name. Are you ready for it?"

A - "Yes!"

Me - "Hamburger Helper."

You know, this just figures. When I slave over a big meal, with complicated, from scratch ingredients, the family eats it, but it's usually not received any better than something that came from a box. ha!
