I'm not sure if I should be posting this or not. I'm going to go ahead just because of the humor factor.

We are a family not known for eating at home very often. There are a half dozen restaurants in town that not only know us by name but know our orders before we sit down. Because of this habit we rarely eat at home and even rarer yet, hot wife cooks something. When we do eat at home it is usually cereal, microwave pancakes or mac and cheese.

Hot wife threw a loop in the household today by firing up the crock pot. It was full of pot roast and vegetables. The house very quickly became filled with the smell of home cookin! In most homes that would bring memories of hot meals and family dinners. In our house it brought a bit of confusion.

I had been home with youngest daughter while she played with the Wii. Oldest daughter arrived home from dance and I met her at the door. The first thing she noticed was the smell. She asked, "What's that?" With a light laugh I told her mommy was cooking dinner. She looked confused and asked, "Who's coming over?" I laughed a little harder and said that just because mommy was cooking it didn't mean someone was coming over.

The funny moment came when youngest daughter said, "Wow, I thought that smell was my feet."
