Scaring For Muffins

The Gremlin was visiting the beach the other day - enjoying time with one of his friends while the Mother of the Gremlin got 'girl time' with one of her friends as well.

This particular day in Seattle, it was windy and wild enough to cause huge crashing waves to breach the seawalls and concrete beaches down by the sound. The Gremlin, with his friend Sydney, were both watching the water, munching on their snacks that the MOTG had just baked.

Just after a few particularly spectacular waves breached, the Gremlin turned to his friend.

"Sydney, watch out or those waves will eat your face!" The poor girl froze and looked at the Gremlin out of the corner of her eye, keeping the waves in front of her so she could watch them too. The Gremlin spoke up again.

"You don't have to be scared, though." The friend of the Gremlin did not believe him, and ate her muffin for comfort.

On the way home, we spoke to the Gremlin.

"Buddy, why did you tell Sydney that the waves would 'eat her face?'"

"Because I wanted her to be scared so she'd drop her muffin because I wanted two!"
