Who Wants Some of This?

Last week, I took my daughter (5) to a local pizza place for supper. As we were waiting at the table, she was getting bored, so she decided to start pretending. (Not an unusual past time for her.) She lifted up the salt shaker and asked if I wanted some on my plate. I said "Sure.", and as she was lifting the salt shaker she reassured me that she wouldn't actually fill my plate with salt, by saying, "I'm just pretending, Mom- it's not for reels."

So, this went on for awhile, with her moving her way through everything that was on the table. "Who wants pepper?...Who wants cheese?..."

But the last container of dried red peppers was, by far, the best:
"Who wants fish food?"
