overheard at the craft show


Daughter: Mom, I'm hungry.
Mom: Well, why don't you get something from that booth over there, like a muffin or something. 
Daughter: How about that big* loaf of bread...


*Big is the operative word here. This term is subjective. To a mom this might mean a large round loaf of rye bread costing about $4. To a 12 year old child this obviously means the loaf of bread that could very well be in the pages of Ripley's Believe it or Not.
