Candy Corn

Asher often asks me what's for dinner.

So, today he said:

"What's for dinner, Mom?"

I said:

"Baked potatoes."

"What else?"

"Umm... corn."

"I want corn."

"Not right now, wait until dinner."

"No, corn. on the counter! In a bag!"

"Green beans?" (since they come in a bag frozen)

"No!! (silly Mom) Corn! In a bag! In a bag!)

"Umm..frozen corn on the cob in a bag?"

"But, I went potty!!!!"

A light goes on!!!

"Oh- candy corn, that I keep in a bag above the counter! That can be potty treats."

"yes!"

And by "I went potty" he means he sat on the potty for about five seconds. Yeah.
