The Hummus among us...

The other day Tab bought some Hummus as a snack for herself, of course Ainsley wasn't going to allow any item of food to go unshared. Tab thinking that one taste would solve the problem soon discovered that Ainsley in fact really likes Hummus. So like Diet Mountain Dew and Hot Tamales, if Tab is having some, so must Ainsley.

The best part was that Matthew decided that since Ainsley like it, he might like it to. After tasting it, the theory was quickly de-bunked. The next day Tab was trying to get Emily to try it too, who would have nothing to do with it.

However, Matthew, as always, wanted to turn his negative experience the day before into a positive experience (at least from his point of view), and try to get Emily to eat Hummus as well. He began by telling her how good it actually tasted, trying to get her to believe it actually tasted good, so she would try some.

To help this along, Tab (knowing Matthew really didn't like the Hummus) took a Pita chip and scooped up a heaping load of Hummus onto the chip and handed it to Matthew so he could show Emily how good it tasted.

After looking like he was going to barf by just looking at the mound of Hummus, he politely told Tab that the amount of Hummus on the chip may have been a little too much. After wiping most of it off the chip he then proceeded to eat the chip with the remnant Hummus on it.

Unfortunately this did not result in tricking Emily into trying it in any way.

Afterward Tab looked at Matthew and said it was "too bad that didn't work" to which Matthew said "Yeah". I guess Matthew didn't take into account the disgusted look and reaction he made when he tried Hummus the day before.

The Score:
Mom +1
Matthew -2
Emily Even
Aisley +1,000,000
Alistair (was at work).

A two year old conversation

I couldn't help sharing this conversation I had with Ainsley this morning.

Mom: "Ainsley! Where are you?"
Ainsley: "I in here mom!"
After reaching the bath room door...
Mom: "You're naked... what are you doing?"
Ainsley: "Oh, I wipin' my 'gina' wif Toiyet papo."


I guess that answered my question...
