Mommy and Peanut were playing games at lunch time, trying to get Bbears to eat his food, and despite the don't play with your food rule of thumb, we were, well, playing with our food. Mommy was putting the food on the fork and then pretending the fork was an airplane, train, car, boat, shopping cart, old man, jogger, etc. Peanut decided she wanted to be an old lady, mommy was helping her to try to sound like a really old lady...
Peanut: "Oh, I'm an old lady walking"
Mommy: "You have to make your voice sound higher and more shakey, and say things like 'you whippersnapper kids these days with your TVs and your video games. When I was a kid we only had a piece of string and a rock to play with'".
Peanut: "ok, 'you kids these days, with your TVs, when I was a kid I only had a piece of string and an ice cube to play with'" (at this point she had taken on a southern accent)
Mommy: "Oh so you're from the deep south are y'all?"
Peanut: (still in southern character) "well, it's just that I don't really know how to talk"
