Grocery Shopping

Emily, Vinnie and I were driving home from Zanesville this morning and I had her all set up with a video to watch, except that I charged it powered up so it didn't charge at all. So no video for her.

She got bored quickly and she asked to play a game. I wasn't in the mood for our normal 'I Spy', so I decided to teacher her "I went to the grocery store and bought something that begins with a ..." game that I used to play when traveling. Emily was excited by the prospect, so I started to give her an idea.

I started with, "I went to the grocery store and bought something that begins with a B". Her first guess was bananas and she got it right.

Emily is never one to take the easy route, said, "I went to the grocery store and bought something that begins with the letter Q".

Q?!?! What was she thinking? And everything I was coming up with, I knew she wouldn't know. But I tried anyway ... "quinoa" No. "quince" No.

Eventually Soon, I gave up and she was so excited that she has stumped me her first time playing. She said, "Do you want me to tell you?"

"Yes, please!"

"It was CUCUMBERS!!"

Of course! LOL

Reminds me of the time we played this when Jason and I were young and Jason had us guessing for something that begins with the letter S. Mom, Dad and I spent a lot of time guessing just about everything in the store and we couldn't come up with it. We finally gave up and Jason exclaimed, "CIGARETTES!"
