Not only could we save some money, but we could save some face as well.
Imagine what our neighbor diners must be experiencing:
Seren peels shrimp. Asks mommy,"What IS this?" Mommy: "It's shell." Seren:"No, it is its skin!" Evy: "It's GOOD, Seren!" Evy's plate has no trace of her shrimp nor their shells...
Daddy brings Evy and Seren some Crayfish. Penny pouts that she doesn't have one. Seren and Evy gladly donate theirs to her cause. Penny donates one to the floor. Penny holds the second while trying to retrieve the first with her foot. Mommy bumps Penny's hand. Penny throws the Crayfish and tries to climb out of the booth while screaming accusations that it bit her. Mommy and Daddy cannot contain their laughter and prepare to recreate the scene.
Mommy dismembers defenseless Crayfish to prove to Penny it is dead. Doesn't work. Daddy retrieves the one that "got away" and wound up on the floor and shoves a chopstick up it's behind to make it a prop (take note all you future heartbreakers). Daddy uses it at the girls' expense.
Finally, it's time to have dessert and Daddy dishes up the girls' favorite: green tea ice cream. Penny ends the evening with a loud: "Thanks for the arse cream, Daddy!" Mommy: "ICE cream, Penny..."
