Recent funnies....

Maricela: "I sing INCREDIBLE" (after singing along to a song on the radio)

Maricela: "Elena, you have a pimple."
Elena: "No, Mari, you mean a beauty mark. It's a beauty mark."
Maricela: "No. It's a pimple."
Elena: "Mom, tell Mari this is a beauty mark!!!"

Me: "Mari, you need to go get your clothes for today."
(she comes out with a nightgown)
Me: "No, Mari, not a nightgown, an outfit to wear today."
Mari: "What's an outfit?"
Me: "You know, pants and a shirt. An outfit."
Mari: "That's not an outfit, Mom, that's a UNICORN."

I asked Keith to go get me a can of chicken broth to use in cooking the dinner. Our food storage is in a root cellar outside, so I usually ask him or Amya to get me something (usually chicken broth) I need from it because I hate going out in the cold and I'm lazy (Yep, I said it) and they're usually nice enough to fetch me whatever I need. So Keith was putting on his shoes to go get it and...
Amya: "Dad, where are you going?"
Keith: "To go get some chicken broth for Mom."
Amya: "Mom uses a LOT of chicken broth, Dad. Women don't got chicken broth, Men don't got dinner."

(Keith made me try a grapefruit he had cut up that he swore was sweet, knowing that I hate grapefruit)
Me (making a gross face while  chewing the NOT sweet grapefruit)
Téa: "Mom's making a face....Mom doesn't like the grapefruit....Mom's trying to spit out the grapefruit...Mom hates the grapefruit...Do you hate it Mom?...Yep, she hates it! Mom hates the grapefruit!!! (like she's a sports commentator or something)
