Wedgie Burgers...The Burger Kids Ask for By Name

You can't make this up...

Yesterday I'm in the kitchen making dinner for Miles and I while he's sitting at the dining room table playing with his cars. Just as the water starts to boil and I'm about to put the pasta in the water Miles comes into the kitchen to ask me what I'm making. I give him a quick smile and respond "Pasta w/Sauce and Veggies", and I pull up a chair so that he san see the boiling water, fresh veggies and soon to be homemade pasta sauce.

He climbs up, takes a disapproving look around, gets down, walks over and start to pull the door to the fridge open. I stop the "unlawful transaction of food" with my foot and ask-with one hand on my hip-what he's doing. He looks up at me with his "I'm soooo sad and depressed" look that he's been practicing for the past month (you know the one Puss & boots gives to get out of trouble with Shreck) and responds with "I want a wedgie meat burger."

All I could do is laugh. Just the word wedgie makes me laugh, so when you pair it up with meat to make "Wedgie Meat" it just sounds so ...funny...so nasty. He was DEAD Serious and just looked at me - kinda how his father would look at me if I were laughing at something that he didn't find as funny...

Anyways, I amend my dinner plans to make something we obviously both like... Wedgie meat burgers, pasta and veggies..hmmmm hmmmm good :)
