Seren says at dinner: Mommy, can I have the artichoke heart?
Mommy: If you want to eat an artichoke heart, you have to eat the leaves first.
Penny: I want some artichoke!
Seren delegates all of the leaves she doesn't want to eat, which is the majority, to Penny to eat.
Once Penny eats all of the leaves, Mommy takes over to clean off the heart so Seren won't hurt herself with the 'choke' part and Penny can benefit from her hard labor.
Seren takes stock of what's leftover, which is half of the heart, and whines: This is ALL I get???
All the while, Evy sits and eats an entire artichoke on her own, leaves and heart, reaping the fruits of her labor in quiet enjoyment.
Seren will be an awesome executive for a corporation, Penny will make a fantastic employee (so far), and Evy might just be a successful sole proprietor. Xander is still on the welfare program. I will be happy when my term as Governor is over.
