Evolution

We had ourselves “Fast Food Friday” this week (who am I kidding – this a regular feature at our house).   After Ricky’s piano lesson, I grabbed some burgers, corn dogs, and fries from our local burger place and even added some tater tots to the order – just to mix things up.

The boys each got a single tot on their plate.  I’m not interested in wasting a perfectly good tater tot and they are not known to be big into change.

Billy, who is always the first one to the table at mealtime, looked at it and asked me what it was.  I said it was a tater tot which is a kind of french fry.  I was trying to keep things simple.

However, Billy’s thinking is generally anything BUT simple.

When Ricky asked him what it was, Billy said,

“This is a tater tot.  It is the evolved form of a french fry!”

There you go.
