Fun with Food

So there sat Sandra, Maddie, and I, peacefully on the bed, eating Golden Oreos. But not the normal ones that are 'golden', the ones that are chocolate-filled with vanilla cookies. Maddie extended her hand, as if to say, "Father, might I have a nibble of cookie?", and as we all know, a 1 year-old in want of a cookie could melt the heart of the Abominable Snowman (it's about a 15 on the 10-scale of cuteness). I held out for as long as I could, which happens to be the approximate time it takes light to travel 1 foot (science guys and gals, here's your chance to reply with the ACTUAL TIME it takes light to travel 1 foot), so needless to say, she received a cookie in short order. I turned to talk to Sandra about how wonderful our daughter is whilst our dearest began consuming the cookie. We turned back to Maddie and saw the following:





This took every bit of the time it takes light to travel 932625 miles, which happens to be about 5 seconds. I was stunned. Zero to cookie smear in 5 seconds. This girl has got to be extra-terrestrial.

Or maybe, just maybe, she is Human, Evolved. (Wo)Mankind 2.0, if you will.




No one can resist the snaggle-tooth smile...

...Or Chuck Norris.
