I got to hand it to my son .... he's on vacation and at 6 am sharp he was out the door doing his paper route !!!
"Mom, makes sense. It's not hot at this hour and I'm done and over with it then!"
Closed the door only to open it again to ask the "infamous" question ....
"Oh, and what's for dinner?"

Kiddo last night: "You know I have to pack the suitcase for the trip tomorrow. So we need to get up early!"
Me: "Chill, bro'. When if and ever am I not up early? And you act like you've never been on a trip before. So, when do you want to get up?"
Kiddo: "At the latest at 8 am."
Hmmm, it's 10 am. No sight of kiddo. And I will soooooo annoy the **** out of him and will start vacuuming now ! *g*

Kiddo: Mom, I'm hungry.
Me: No kidding.
Kiddo: When's dinner?
Me: As you can see I am in the midst of cleaning the house. And it's just past 6 pm.
Kiddo: What's for dinner anyway?
Me: Maultaschen. Baguette to go with it.
Kiddo: Veggies??
Me (already knowing what's next): Caprese?
Kiddo: YES!!
Me: Okay. You do the Caprese. I'll finish cleaning the bathroom.
End of story .... kiddo is scrubbing the toilet and I'm chilling in the kitchen
Well, HE thought it was a good deal :-))))
