Room and board

One of the nice things about living with my mom is that she does the cooking.

One of the downsides is conversations like these:

My mom: "We're either having eggs or chicken for dinner tonight, and we'll have the other one tomorrow."

Me: "But which comes first, the chicken or the eggs?"

To be fair, I guess it was my fault that the conversation took the dismal turn it did. Yet it seemed like such a reasonable question to ask at the time...

Edit: For those of you keeping score at home, the eggs came first.

Koichi:

But if you cooked the eggs first, how could you get the chicken?


(And the groaning you hear is why Cathy doesn't live with me. That, and I don't cook for her.)
