Kids Say

Enchil-la-las
We have a great casserole recipe from Dan's mom that is called Enchiladas, though the tortillas are the only really Mexican part about the recipe.  No matter, it is delicious. Lynn, however, cannot say Enchilada and has rechristened them Enchi-la-las.

Recipe:
1 lb. hamburger browned and drained
2 cans Hormel Chili No Beans
1 package flour tortillas
1-1 ½ cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Combine Chili with browned and drained hamburger in a skillet and heat through.  Place a spoon full of meat mixture and a sprinkle of cheese in a tortilla.  Roll up tortilla and place in a microwave safe casserole dish.  Continue placing rolled tortillas next to each other in the dish until it is full.  Pour remaining meat mixture over the rolled tortillas.  Sprinkle cheese over top of entire dish.  Cover and heat in microwave for 3-4 minutes until cheese is melted and dish is heated through.

And in things a 6 year old should never say….
Joe has moved beyond most of the cute/funny word mix ups that he used to have.  However, I am pretty sure that Lynn may be featured in "Kids Say" indefinitely.  Bless her funny language goofs.

Here is a conversation we had just after she had been put to bed the other night.  She stayed in her room and we were in ours.  Thank goodness she couldn't see us so we didn't have to explain to her why we were busting up laughing at the end of the conversation.

Lynn: Mom!
Me: What Lynn?
Lynn: There's a hooker in my bed.
Me (laughing): What?
Lynn: A hooker
Me: Do you mean a hanger?
Lynn: Oh, yeah.
Me: Just put it on the floor. We'll put it away in the morning.

And hopefully we never have to talk to either of our children about hookers ever again.
