just slam and squish meat into it...

Lately my kids have been kitchen wizards. Surprise! The other night Skylar made dinner while I was otherwise occupied. We had big wads of scrambled eggs and salad. Last night, Sebastian almost single-handedly concocted stuffed peppers. He said it was easy, "All you do is just slam and squish meat into it." I like his explanation. It doesn't have to be applied to only the construction of stuffed peppers, but so many other things as well. How easily many people are sated just by the slamming and squishing of meat. And meat can have soooo many definitions as well. Just like seasickness. Sean was teaching Sebastian about Grandpa Green, who wasn't really my grandfather though I wish he could have been. Anyway, Sean was telling Sebastian about Grandpa being in the war. He paused to ask me for clarification, and to make sure that he wasn't telling Sebastian anything untrue. So I said, "Yeah, he was overseas during WWII." Sean then said, "Hmmm, do you think he got seasick?" And I told him that he probably did. Maybe not on a boat, perhaps, but maybe seasick at heart and in his mind. I think that for myself that's how I would feel anyway. Thrust there in the chaos of war, I would be overly seasick. Another word, with different, but all correct applications.
