The Gremlin had yet another exciting trip to the store the other day. He'd gone through the process of shopping with the Mother of the Gremlin, which I can verify is no easy task. While putting his inventory on the conveyor belt he noticed a lack of items that he wanted.
"Mumma! I want five kiwis and five peppers!" The checkout clerk laughed as the MOTG responded.
"Buddy, I don't think you're going to eat five."
"No, mumma! I will!" The clerk was laughing at this point and joined in.
"I bet you won't eat five peppers." The Gremlin glared at the intrusion and snatched up a pepper.
"I bet I will! Bell peppers are my favorite!" And with that, he bit into a red bell pepper like it was an apple. The clerk burst out laughing.
"And you can have that one for free." He looked at the MOTG. "I've never seen a kid to that before. Did you just come from the Health Food Market?"

ReplyDeleteI just keep thinking of that scene in Lethal Weapon where Mel Gibson bites into the onion.
