My dad at breakfast: Do you want some grits?

Me: Dad, you know I don’t like grits.

Dad: I didn’t know that… So how do you go to the grits place and not eat grits?

Me: What grits place?

Dad: I don’t know Avia… some place called “Grits and something…”

Me (racking my brain trying to figure out what in the world he could be talking about): I’ve never gone to any place like that.

My mom (yelling from the other room):  Avia! He means Grits and Biscuits!

Sometimes I love how “woke” my mom is when it comes to my trivial affairs. Her commentary always comes at the most unexpected times, but it’s always on time.
