QUICHE! THAT LOOKS GOOD! AARDVARK?

The parents:  John & Pamela

The sons:  Calvin, Spencer, & Ian

The girlfriends:  Caroline & Nikki

The setting:   kitchen, Memorial Day breakfast, a pitch-in

Pamela:  Quiche!  That looks good, Nikki!  I've never had quiche before.  Is it homemade?

Calvin:  Yes, egg, spinach and avocado.

Pamela:  Calvin.  I didn't ask you!

John:  Did she say aardvark?

Ian:  No, she didn't say.  Calvin said.  Calvin said avocado.  She said art-i-choke.

Nikki:  YAH.  Ha, ha, "she said artichoke".

Spencer:  (coming from the family room)  CHOKE!  Who's choking?!  I know CPR!  I can do the Heimlich Maneuver!  Move!

Ian:  Stop it!  No one's choking.

Pamela:  We're discussing the ingredients of quiche -- eggs, spinach, and avocado.

Calvin:  Colorado?  I thought we were going to Tybee Island.  I asked my boss for time off and everything.

Spencer:  Off with everything?!

Ian:  Hello!  Nikki, don't look, he's taking off everything!

Spencer:  Caroline, what're you looking at him for?

Caroline:  I'm not looking at him!   I'm looking for the hash browns.

Pamela:  I like 'em almost burnt.  Not that pasty white, a darker shade of brown.

Spencer:  MOTHER!

Pamela:  WHAT?

Ian:  That's racist!

Pamela:  I'm not racist, hush it up!  I'm talking about frying taters.

John:  I want some fried gators.  

Pamela:  Sheesh, no John, not fried gators, fried po-ta-toes.  We're out.  Blame Caroline.  Tell you what, though,  I'll fry some French toast.

John:  French Toes?  Huh?   You best leave my toes alone!  

Calvin:  Nikki likes French toes, that fancy cut and nail polish.  Caroline's all American.  Baseball and Apple Pie.

Ian:  You LOOK like an apple pie.

Calvin: You're a pie!

Spencer:  You're round like an apple pie

Ian:  You're round like a pie pan of quiche!

Nikki:  Quiche anyone?

Calvin:  Is it homemade?  What's in it?  

John:  Avocado, Aardvark, and Artichoke -- all American.

Caroline:  Wait a minute!  I thought Nikki's mother was Greek!

Spencer:  Creek?  As in Creek Indian?

Calvin:  Who's going to the creek?

Ian:  We are.  We're going kayaking on Pipe Creek.

Calvin:  Oh, yay?   Can I come ... too.

Ian:  Two?  You and who else, we only have so much room.

Calvin:  Room?  I'm not staying in this room.  If I have to stay behind, I'll just test drive the truck Dad and I've been working on.  

John:  Before you all leave, take 'em from the ignition; leave the quiche with me!

Caroline:  LOL, we need to find his aardvark!

Calvin:  Yardwork!  I didn't come to do yard work.  I'm outta here.

Pamela:  If you all are leaving, I'll wrap up the rest of that quiche to go.

Spencer:  Keys to go?  Shoot, where'd I put them.  Oh, there they are, on the steps.  OK, WE HAVE KEYS TO GO

Nikki:  (Coming from the kitchen) I've got OUR quiche!
