Cupcake: What’s this, Mr. Newton?
Newton: It’s the centerpiece for the table for Memorial Day.
Cupcake: I thought the centerpiece for the table was grilled chicken. Ashton promised to show me how to get some.
Newton: That’s a main dish, not a centerpiece. A centerpiece sits in the middle of the table and looks nice.
Cupcake: I can sit in the middle of the table and look nice. Hey, this is kind of fun!
Newton: Be careful, kid, don’t —
Cupcake: Ugh, I hope there’s chicken, too. That tastes awful.
Wishing a safe and happy Memorial Day to all of our friends celebrating today.
(Please don’t eat your centerpieces.)
