HMQM: Oatmeal! I want oatmeal for breakfast!
Me: Good choice! Do you want it white or brown? (Royal code for 'made with milk or water'.)
HMQM: White! And I want it to be three inches of sweet, okay? If it's only ONE inch, just add a cup of brown sugar. Then, if it's only TWO inches, add another cup. Then when it's THREE inches, it will be sweet enough for me to eat it.
Me: ...okay...
HMQM: And I would like some fresh, cold, ice water and I want to have breakfast in the living room so I can watch my Barbie Christmas movie.
Me: ...bowing...scurrying to complete my task...wondering how to measure inches of sweetness...
Oh, I think you just DID measure inches of sweetness!
