we took a trek to visit my grandparents in Cincinnati this weekend (where nick scored many positive points with the g-ma according to my mom) and my g-ma is one of those who is never happy unless she is taking care of everyone else's every possible need. aka continuously feeding.
mornings at my grandparents consists of 2 breakfasts. one of doughnuts when you first stumble out of bed. one of home-cooked yummyness once everyone is awake enough to place their order. there is no time spend sitting around when there are not bowls upon bowls of snacks on the table...and if she notices someone isn't eating continuously she goes to the cabinet and gets something else out...just in case the reason said individual isn't eating is because they don't like any of the 5 things she has already gotten out.
After double sunday breakfast we just were not hungry for lunch at noon. so grandma insisted we finish off the starwberry rhubarb pie (not a tall order for the two of us) and we later lunched quickly at mcdonalds. number 12 value meal for nick. 6 piece chicken nuggets and a medium coffee for me.
"a medium fry"
"no, I said a medium COFFEE"
"that will be just a moment I'll make another pot"
and we wait. food all appears sans the coffee and all important bbq sauce.
"could we get some bbq sauce and the coffee"
no response and the girl goes over towards the fries. we assume she didnt here so we ask another. coffee procured. go on to our table. girl appears fries in hand.
"here's the medium fry....sorry bout that"
