Cob on the corn - it's what's for dinner

Owen: "Daddy, the dark part on this cob on the corn is the part you cooked. It's my favorite."

Adam: "Buddy, you make such a mess eating it. Try eating a whole row across, like a typewriter, instead of random bites."

Me: "Um, honey? It's 2010. Do you really expect these kids to know what a typewriter is?"

Lauren: "I do! I saw one on Ratatouille!"
