Ode to the Cannoli Omelette

The boys apparently survived their weekend together, without me.
Someone asked me if I missed the baby. "What baby?" I replied. No, I really did miss both my boys for our 48-hour separation. The Boo and I spend all together too much time with each other and it's good for us to take a break. It is also good for Dad to see WHY Mom is always threatening to kill herself.
D: He did pretty well, except he didn't eat his eggs the way he eats them for you.
K: What do you mean?
D: Well he just pushed them around the tray and only ate a little. I guess he likes the way you make them better.
K: Did you put cheddar in them?
D: I couldn't find it.
I went over to the fridge, opened the door, and pulled out the Ziploc with a block of cheese in it from the second shelf. The block of cheese had CHEDDAR in 72 point font written on the packaging.
K: I could see how you couldn't find it. It was very well hidden.
D: (ignoring me) so I put ricotta in his eggs instead.
K: What?
D: It was there. On the shelf.
K: Cause it was on the shelf doesn't mean you should put it in the kid's eggs.
D: Oh, well.
K: I'm shocked the kid didn't want lasagna eggs.
D: Not everyone has that weird food mixing thing you have.
I don't like my food to touch. And I don't want to hear how it all mixes in your stomach. I don't care. It grosses me out if they touch each other on the plate. I allow for casseroles and food that is supposed to touch. I'll put cheddar on an omelette. But just because I adore ricotta cheese doesn't mean I think it should ever be in the same room with cooked eggs. And from the looks of it, I may have bred another one of my small crowd. WooHoo to the non-touching food crowd.
