A conversation I had with Duffy while she was playing with play dough.

Duffy: "Mom, do you know what I'm making?"

Me: (After already correctly identifying the pizza and cookies previously made.) "No, I don't. What are you making?"

Duffy: (with obvious pride) "A macken."

Me: "Oh. Hmm, I don't really know what a macken is."

Duffy: (with obvious frustration at my ineptitude,) "You know, Mom, like Mac'n Cheese!'

Oh, right, a mac'n. I should have known.
