I know everyone thinks we are brainwashing our kids, what with all the GO BLUE-ing and MICHIGAN-ing and BOO “insert whoever is next on the schedule”-ing that goes on around here.
But this takes the cake.
Rick’s usual shirt of choice (on workdays anyway) is a dark blue adidas shirt with the block M. But since Michigan had a game on September 11, adidas put out a special issue of the shirt, with the stars & stripes filling in the block M, instead of just a solid yellow block M.
Well, tonight at dinner, Mallory pointed to the flag-filled block M and said “that red and then white and then red and then white is just like the red restaurant!”
As in TGI Fridays, the restaurant with the red & white striped awnings, that Mallory calls the red restaurant.
I think it’s funny enough that her favorite restaurant is the red restaurant, but that she sees the awning in an American flag is hysterical.
