I am sure that many of you when you read my posts related to the family and their visiting might think we are bit less than serious. YOU WOULD BE WRONG. We are a serious and sober family. Cotton Mather and Massachusetts Puritans would feel frivolous compared to the de-I/Wife clan. Even though the #3 arm of the clan is in Sweden, we often have very engaged and deeply thoughtful text chats. Here is an only very slightly edited version of one that took place just this morning related to daughter #3's love for the breakfast cereal, Grapenuts, which she sadly cannot find in Sweden.
3.1 - Mom we have constructed your perfect burger: lettuce or two thin slices of brown bread with stuff in it for burger bun, a two Patty burger with one being halloumi and the other a bean patty, with mushrooms, tomatoes. Onion, aubergine and broccoli, with a side of a salad WITH Dutch frieten and mayo and your dessert is Grapenuts DQ
3A - The burger would be 50%+ broccoli though. And, we are not sure if there would be more Grapenuts than ice cream in the DQ dessert
de-I - Is this something that has actually been achieved or will be achieved soon. Or is this a theoretical construct
3.1 - Theoretical, for now…Until mom sees it of course.
#3 - I will bring Grapenuts next time to DQ...
3.2 – 3.1, are you offering to make it?
de-I -Yes Yes Yes. It must be done now 3.1!
3A - Don't force them to tap the NO GRAPE NUTS!! sign again
#3 - *sigh* if only extra Grapenuts were an option every where
3.2 - I'm looking at you Burger King!!!!
de-I - If Grapenuts were everywhere we would end up with things like frieten with Grapenuts mayo, Grapenuts Potato Salad, and our pizza would come with a packet of Grapenuts to sprinkle over each slice. Best the remain a hard to find US breakfast food
3.2 - Personally I think that mom would love if the world was taken over by Grapenuts.....Buuuut from a health standpoint maybe its best if Grapenuts aren't everywhere
de-I - If you could find something that would bind Grapenuts together, you could form a statue based on your Mother’s image and it would become the goddess of the Grapenuts cult! 😃
3.2 - Whose gonna provide the Grapenuts tho? You think I'm made of Grapenuts?
de-I - I will. I will bring them in September. We will have to hide them from Mums or she will eat them before you can create the idol.
#3- me and the other 32 people on Earth who love Grapenuts resent this
de-I - You should be honored that you are deified as their cult Goddess. This will entitle you to rent a place on the lowest slum slopes of Mount Olympus where the Magical Unicorn Pony God of Travel resides. Then you could become the Magical Sales Manager Goddess of Grapenuts!
#3 - 🤩, MSMGG! Has a nice ring to it.
de-I - I’m telling you deification has a lot of upsides
#3 - All of this just makes me want Grapenuts
3.2 - Are we supposed to be learning of this? Or is it a secret cult?
de-I - Well as one of the cult founders you kind of need to know. How can you sculpt the idol of the demi-Goddess if you are unaware of the cult?
#3 - OMG marshmallow cereal treats made of Grapenuts!! Birthday cake sorted 3.2
de-I – 3.2, The Magical Sales Manager Goddess of Grapenuts speaks!
3.2 - WHAT??? NO!!!!
And thus do we as a family deal with the true and deep issues of the day.
