Ice Cream Recipe
Mama: “So how do you make ice cream?”
Eitan: “First you cut up apple and banana real small and mix them up. mix mix mix. then you mush them down and mix.” *accompanied by hand motions of mixing*
Mama: “What next?”
Eitan: “Add cold flavor”
Mama: “Mmm, that sounds yummy. Then what?”
Eitan: “Flour?”
Mama: “You mean sugar?”
Eitan: “Yes, sugar”
The other day we were in the car and Eitan coughed. It certainly didn’t sound concerning so I didn’t even check on him. Then we hear from the back seat in a very small voice:
“fake cough”
Mama: “We need to put Neosporin on your cut to kill the bacteria”
Eitan: “But Mama, killing is bad.”
