Snips & Snails vs. Sugar & Spice



While discussing dinner options one afternoon Rachel asked what Ben was made of. "Maybe we could just eat him."

Me: snips & snails & puppy dog tails. That's what little boys are made of.

Rachel:(with a look of total revulsion) Nevermind-that sounds nasty!

Ben: What's Rachel made of then?

Me: Sugar & spice & everything nice. That's what little girls are made of.

Ben: (grinning wickedly) Mmmm-let's eat her for dinner then.

Hayden began shouting: No puppies, no eat puppies!

It was a very convoluted conversation. As they debated it between themselves I overheard Ben say in a naughty whisper: "you may be made of sugar & spice, but you are definately NOT nice!"

The topic ended when Rachel started crying & defending her "niceness".

Hayden eyed dinner that night and asked "puppy?"
