Lesson Finally Learned

"This has never happened before."

“I would think so...”

“Well almost never.”

“It did happen before?”

“But not like this.”

“How was it different?

“Well, first of all it wasn’t here, of course.”

“Of course. Where was it?”

“My mother’s house.”

“I thought your mother was a great cook.”

“She was, she is!”

“But, this happened to her?”

“Not exactly.”

“Well what exactly?”

“It happened to me.”

“I thought you never cooked when you were growing up.”

“I didn’t, but I did try once. I tried to make my own pizza.”

“Like this?”

“Exactly.”

“But you cook all the time now, how could you make such a rookie mistake?”

“I just wanted to see if it would work this time, now that I knew how to cook. It seemed like such a good idea.”

“Jello Pizza?”

“Yes.”

“Well, you’re cleaning this up.”

“Got it.”
