“mine needs some more water”

“MINE needs some more water”

“mine tastes like beer”

“mine tastes like COFFEE”

“mine needs more water, now it tastes like better beer”

“mine needs more water, tastes like coffee“

+++++++

“see Mama these are my keys”

“I see”

“this one is for the Michael’s store, and this one for the grocery store, and this one for the beer store, and this one for the wine store!”

While listening to their play I feel like Steve and I are cracking open a bottle of wine every day and drinking from the bottle.  Like we have shelves of beer in the fridge that we are regularly reaching for.

Honestly, I don’t drink THAT much.  In fact, I hardly ever drink.  I might have a beer once every three or four months, and when I do drink a beer I drink ONE.  Something Steve finds remarkable not being the one-beer type, he prefers several in a sitting so tends to drink even less frequently than I do.  Plus there’s that whole training for a marathon gig that sort of lends itself to a more prudent lifestyle.

I might have a glass of a wine every couple of weeks, and again, I’ll have ONE glass.  I get so sick, so quickly, that even if I wanted to be cracking open that wine bottle at 4 pm everyday (and admittedly, there are weeks where I would love to do that), my body is an evil traitor and I can’t be a normally functioning person the following day what with the pounding heachache and revolting stomach.  No thank-you.

So clearly they are imitating someone else.  I suspect it’s Grandma.
