When you need to discuss dinner options without getting your toddler over-excited about something you might not wish to promise:
“What did you give him for dinner yesterday?”
“Uh…. digits of piscine creatures.”
“Riiiiiiigh. Well, today he’s getting a circular cut of dough with shredded dairy and porcine bits.”
“Ok. Oh! There are also strips of barnyard fowl in there as well!”
Vert soon, our toddler is going to start thinking that his parents are crazy, or begin developing a preternaturally large vocabulary.
Probably both.
