The Dorkiness of My Family

Scene: Conversation over breakfast this morning

Dad (really excited): I got you lot of fruits and vegetables. I got Parsnips!

Me (bursting out laughing): Parsnips?

Dad: You keep saying you like root vegetables.

Only my Father would be quite so excited about the parsnip, which is now what we are having for dinner tonight. I'm excited. I do like the root vegetables.
