what every mom longs to hear

This morning I had breakfast in the oven when Chandler walked into the kitchen. He wanted to know what was for breakfast and said, "Please tell me it's cold cereal."

I told him it wasn't and that I'd fixed German pancakes. He said, "remind me again what those are." I told him it's the pancakes you bake in a 9x13 pan in the oven and they get all puffy.

His faint praise: "Oh, I can live with that."

Gee, thanks!
