Yummy, I just love....

this favorite American treat -- well, not really, but I do have a funny story about it.
A couple Sunday's ago Hunter announced that Kadan got a cool treat from his teacher. Just seconds later, Kadan bounded around the corner, lifted up his cylindrical treat wrapped in tin foil and announced,

"Look mom, I got a Nick Knock?"

"A what?" I snickered.

"A Nick Knock," Hunter and Kadan said in unison.

Almost unable to control my belly laughter enough to speak I said, "You mean a Ding Dong?"

We just laughed and laughed. Sharing the little story with some friends as we walked out to our car kept the laughter alive.

Kinda sad that my 10 year-old and 8 year-old boys don't have a clue what a Ding Dong is but love how it was introduced with this hilarious mess-up!

*HILARIOUS*!! So funny. . . although, to be honest, none of us would know what they were, either. . .a Wagon Wheel, though - mmmm. I'm feeling the need to have one of those soon!!

I love nick knocks and the boys who call them that.
