For dinner tonight we are having a TV dinner. This is all honestly something that has never happen in this house before. You can tell by this dialog.
Me: Dad is stopping on his way home to pick up some TV dinners for dinner.
Superstar: He's doing what?
Me: He's stopping at the store to pick up some TV dinners for dinner tonight.
Superstar: What's a TV dinner?
Me: It's a meal that you buy in the frozen food section that you heat up and eat.
Superstar: Is it tradition to eat those meals in front of the TV?
Me: Yes, I think it is tradition that is why it's called a TV dinner.
Superstar: Can we eat in front of the TV then tonight?
Web-princess: I want to eat in front of the TV too!!
Me: (chuckling) yes you can.
The whole thing made me chuckle because I know by the time I was 9 and 8 I surely knew what a TV dinner was!!! Next they will be watching some TV show and will be asking why the phone is attached to the wall or why is that CD so big?? LOL
That's fun! I have fond memories of saving the little cherry dessert for last. We used to eat TV dinners often also. I think I've made them once. I should make them again sometime, just so the kids can know what they taste like.
