We had a student and his son over to dinner tonight as his wife is out of town. I cooked some sausages and roasted some potatoes. The potatoes were incredibly hot and Theo didn't plan for this when he bit into his. He quickly spit it out and started crying.
We were all very sympathetic and tried to comfort him. Charles asked him, 'Oh Theo are you in pain? That must have really hurt.' To which Theo replied, 'yes my nipples hurt.'
WHAT? We all looked around, including our friend and Jack (who mind you is six) and burst out laughing. I am just glad that our dinner guest was a good friend and not someone we were trying to impress! Never a dull moment at the Anderson dinner table!

The nibble of potatoes---perhaps the b's got turned upside down as a result of his pain. Poor Theo.
We are so sorry Theo is hurt. I hope his "taster" is well soon. Life is definitely fun with children to bless our tables.
