Red in the Face

2009 July 9

At a restaurant,

Server (to Peanut): Here you go sweetie, your Apple juice. Let me know how it is. 

Peanut (sips a little): Mmm….yum…it tastes like BEER. 

The other half and moi:  :shock: :mrgreen:

Server:  :grin:  

Me (hiding embarrassment):  When did you taste Beer? 

Peanut: Mamma, It looks like Beer.

(The thing is this Apple juice was a bit fizzy still imagine what that server thought about us as parents.) 

———————————————————————————–

After dinner from this restaurant we went to Sundial Bridge again, for a stroll. It was after 9..not too dark. I saw three Indian guys coming towards us. I told the other half that one guy looks like OG and since SFO is just 3 hours away and this being long weekend, it could be him. I stared at those guys to get a good glimpse and almost prepared to surprise ‘the blogger friend’ only to find that it was someone else. Gosh! So embarrassing and those guys were a little taken aback. 

This is what crazy world of blogging does to you. 

At Lake Caverns there were lot of Dandelion parachute ball, I looked at them and said to myself…. WOW! Saritha’s avatar.

The time is not far when I go to the Zoo, see a Langoor and exclaim…Quirky Indian (Check his profile picture). (Now before QI lands on my blog, let me make a quick exit). :lol:  

[P.S. I took QI's permission before putting this here. Just in case anyone accuses me of meanness. :P ]

    ha ha ha ha…peanut will get both of you arrested one day. don’t be surprise if you find child services at yoru door : D ha ha ha

    me: I know. :???: The things this kid comes up with…I really need to tape her mouth.

    the reminder of blogs wherever i go happens to me too…..I see a word or a picture and I am reminded of friends here.

    rofl at apple juice tasting like beer. :)

    hahaha at seeing bloggers irl.
    So where are you located if you are only 3 hours away from SFO.
    I am 30 miles away from there.

    me: I was in Redding during the long weekend which is 3 hrs away from SFO :)

  3. 2009 July 9

    That was hilarious!!!

    Peanut knows how beer tastes :) The waiter must have thought that you are initiating your daughter into the joys of alcohol a trifle early :)
    Once when Poohi wanted to taste ‘Daddy’s juice’ – he gave her a taste and now she keeps clear of Daddy’s juice :) and since we spell in out ‘B E E R’ or ‘W I N E’ – she has not caught on the names yet – but she yells in excitement everytime we reach the alcohol aisle with a ‘Daddy’s juice – Daddy, shall we buy juice for you’ :)

    me: Ha..ha.. there is no way to fool Peanut now as she can read and write very well. Now I just need to buy some tape.

    So you scared OG’s lookalike :) Am sure they must have ribbed him that he is attracting married women :)

    me: I don’t think they knew I was married. There is no way to guess that. Ha..ha..ha.. but whatever they were shocked and I pretended to be cool and walked away.

    And ROFL at ‘The time is not far when I go to the Zoo, see a Langoor and exclaim…Quirky Indian’ :lol:

  4. 2009 July 9

    LOL, Peanut is actually brilliant. Fresh apple juice does look like Beer; fortunately it doesnt taste like beer !

    me: Accroding to my daughter, hers tasted like Beer. :| then little later she claims it ‘looks’ like one.

    OGs look alike, huh ??? Now you know that we are everywhere watching you !!! Beware Don Solilo !!

    Btw, I liked the new name OG has given you ! Sololiya :D :D :D

    me: Mogambo-Shakaal team….wait till we unveil our plans.

  5. 2009 July 9

    ROFL! This one is hilarious. The Peanut takes the cake with the tasting like beer apple juice. Too cool.

    me: That too she added ‘YUM’..as if she drinks Beer daily. :|

  6. 2009 July 9

    solilo, this is a common comparison for kids who have seen beer. my cousin when she was three years old ( back in the late seventies ) asked her mom at a party, are u drinking beer ? in front of the inlaws -way back it was a differernt story.

    me: Oh boy! :lol:

  7. 2009 July 9

    LOL:))))
    Peanut is soooo right….Apple juice does looks like BEER…wowww, cho cuteee she said that to the server…am still laughing!!!

    me: I am thanking my stars that the server didn’t call social services. :|

  8. 2009 July 9

    Children have a way of embarrassing their parents…Good thing you didn’t get arrested…

    me: Ha..ha..ha.. Bones..that’s what. She found it ky-oot. My daughter shone some more then.

  9. 2009 July 9

    heehee!! :)

    Peanut’s brilliant! :) :)

    Quick comment before I take off and disappear till 5!!!! :) :)

    Hugs! :)

    me: Pixer, I know. Busy day for you today.

  10. 2009 July 9

    hahahahahahahaha :P peanuts is just brilliant!!!!!!!!
    tastes like beer…… what if she had said something like JD whisky…… hahahahahahahahhaha :P

    me: She just knows Beer and Wine as of now.

    Did that guy really resemble me…… was he that fat??? hahahahahahahah :P

    me: Ha..ha..ha.. not fat. Really tall and somehow resembled that dance picture you posted. It was after 9 so little dark. I couldn’t see clearly.

    • 2009 July 9

      hehehehehe :P pavam “that dude” :P :P

      me: Paavam. Ha..ha.. if he is anywhere in the blogosphere he will know it was me.

    me: :roll:

  13. 2009 July 9

    Kids say the weirdest things :)

    I think some one needs to point QI to this post…no?

    me: I mailed him. :D

  14. 2009 July 9

    Ha ha, Peanut is awesome.

    And please don’t make fun of my picture. I realise it was taken when I was younger and better-looking, but I haven’t changed much. Still got the magic! ;-)

    Cheers,

    Quirky Indian

    me: Yes..yes..magic is still there. Ha..ha..ha.. Abhi to main jawaan hoon. That’s the cutest avatar on WP.

    ROFL apple juice tastes like beer… another point to be added in the bad parents.. :D

    kids are so smart these days, sometime back I had my cousin visiting me and we all were having orange juice spiked with vodka, i had kept mine on dining table and was sipping along with my hostess duties and suddenly I saw my 5-yr old nephew taking a sip from my drink and I ran and stopped him… we were all shocked and asked him why u are drinking massi’s juice and thak came the answer… massi juice has vodka and its tastier than only orange juice :D :P we had a tough time that day, ofcourse we laughed a lot later

    me: Ha..ha..ha..it is hilarious inside the house but embarrassing outside.

    and langoor and QI lol :D :D

    Actually,fizzy apple juice looks,if not,tastes like Beer.
    Peanut…………….

    me: :)

  18. 2009 July 9

    Solilo, every time I read about Peanut, I admire her more and more! Where did she get this much imagination?! But Apple juice does look like beer! Really, the bearer had got a story to tell his family, that night!

    me: I think kids have great imagination. Sad! that our parents didn’t blog then. I was cute too. *Solilo fluttering eyelashes*

    The sundial photo is beautiful, with the beautiful sky, as the background.

    I just checked your blog to see, if you have written a new one and lo, I saw this. Yours and Saritha’s too, are not getting updated in my blog list. Smitha’s too.

    me: Oh! it is not updating? Wonder why.

    I enjoy Peanut tales always, Solilo…Sololiya, sounds good to the ear!

    me: Sandhya, don’t listen to the devils. :lol:

  19. 2009 July 9

    oh ya well imagine if it was the other way about :P

    me: :D

  20. 2009 July 9

    I just would have loved to see the look on your faces when Peanut said this… !!!!

    OMG !!!!! geee… !!

    me: Hitchy, the look was :mrgreen:

  21. 2009 July 9

    Ha ha… Tastes like beer… :)

    If it was ‘looks like’… would have saved you some embarrassment.

    me: Yeah. She said that much later. First it was Mmmm..yum…licked her lips..as if it really was Beer. :|

  22. 2009 July 9

    kids i tell you… :O
    but solilo must be looking pretty with red face :D isnt it..

    me: Tara, you are enjoying this. Aren’t you? Ha..ha..ha..

    • 2009 July 9

      you know I always miss out on the comment replies coz u add them at the end of the comment instead of replying.. so if i dont come back to see what you replied, i wont know.. and with so many comments n replies (all so interesting) i am miss out some fun..
      is there any other way to get comment reply update?

      me: oh! you mean by clicking on reply button? I don’t like that as it counts my comment as one too and gives a false impression of too many comments. That’s why I am replying immediately. :D

      Comment update you will only get if there is an additional new comment not when I edit and add. :)

      n believe me, u are getting me completely wrong :D its nothing to do with rimjhim gire sawan.. sachi :P

      me: You..you wicked wicked lady! Wait! now bachoooo. Ha..ha..ha..

  23. 2009 July 9

    India mein toh server (read:waiter) would have asked, “Really, Anything to go with that son!!!???” No Child Services Issue here!!! :D

    me: To a 5 yr old? Ha..ha..ha..

  24. 2009 July 9

    Wasn’t Peanut right?! What you see is what you get! Had she see apple juice first, beer would have tasted like it! You have a lovable daughter!

    me: Ha..ha..ha..Mr. Sharma, you too? She saw Apple juice first. :lol:

  25. 2009 July 9

    Wasn’t Peanut right?! What you see is what you get! Had she seen apple juice first, beer would have tasted like it! You have a lovable daughter!

  26. 2009 July 9

    me: :)

    me: Ha..ha..ha..you are right, Oorja and if I find one then I am going underground for sometime.

  30. 2009 July 9

    ROFL! I guess blogomania does that to u! spotting lookalikes of blog friends where u go :D

    as for Peanut’s comment…lol…. she’s a sweetheart! :-) hey, look at it this way. it is her comments that prompt half of ur most interesting/entertaining posts anyway.

    P.S.: “But mama is circle? :-|:D :D

    me: Oye! now credit for my blog too goes to her?! And you…shoo shoo..you remember way too much. :mad:

    • 2009 July 9

        • 2009 July 9

          hahah… thats what i get for having a darn good memory… damn! go figure! :-/

          me: Your good memory used to malign me is not allowed. Ha..ha..ha..ha.. I am already Red faced.

  31. 2009 July 9

    now on those emoticons after Peanut’s declaration that the drink tasted like beer…tell me was the ‘oh’ expression from your other half and were you the one grinning widely showing off all your teeth?? :D

    me: I was the one grinning :lol:

    Goodness,blogomania is sure catching up like fire isnt it??? :lol: :lol:

  32. 2009 July 9

    So sweet peanut :) we can’t escape from them,now it is confirmed that she knows what is beer.

    We went to birthday party last sat and my younger one spoke to few girls there who were in the age group of 10-12 years,she said a word to them and they didn’t understood what she said and i was shocked and embarrassed that i didnt translate to them and said something else to them.

    me: Was it in Telegu? :)

    Lol solilo it had happened samething with me,one day i saw a guy who was looking like rakesh in dubai and i was staring at him and thank god he didn’t stare at me (that’s what i am thinking)What if he had seen me,he would have thought why this aunty with two kids staring at me.

    • 2009 July 10

      Ya you’re right Saritha, the other day I saw a lady with two kids in the park below my office and the children looked just like your daughters together and it got me wondering… Do u come to the creek in Deira btw?

      me: This is now a bloggers meet park. :D

    • 2009 July 11

      Yes solilo it was in telugu which her dad did and she said that in telugu to those girls ;)

  33. 2009 July 9

    forgot i am not able to see the sundial bridge.

    me: You mean the picture? Hm..it is at the end of the post.

  34. 2009 July 9

    :D Awesome . Kickass . I am a fan of Peanut now . :)

    me: :D Kickass is back.

  35. 2009 July 9

    Good one by Peanut !! And she is so right !

    One day when I was having pomogranate juice, my younger daughter thot I was having alcohol (that’s the word she uses) and started giving me a lecture on the bad effects and so…. I am telling her it is fruit juice and to taste before accusing me. OMG ! It took a lot of convincing from my side before she could agree. Me and S had a hearty laugh later !!!

    me: She says alcohol? How old is she? :D

    I think blogging does this to us among so many other things. There is a permanent pic of the blog / comments / avatars in my mind all the time, no matter what I do. Ill effects of blogging, perhaps !

    • 2009 July 10

      She’ll be 12 on Aug 12th. She’s very fiery. What ever she feels right, she’ll fight toes and nails for it. I remember how much she fought with me that day – for me drinking alcohol. That school has taught that drinking Alcohol is not good for health and she follows it to the letter.

      me: Uma, you can’t blame her. :D

  36. 2009 July 9

    Loved Peanut’s response!!! (And hope with fingers crossed that Diya would never do this to me)

    me: Ha..ha..ha.. if not this then something else. As someone once said, children are born to teach people a lesson.

    • 2009 July 10

      No no… not my daughter (bends on her knees and prays feverishly ‘Please God Please’)
      !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      me: :lol: *Solilo join Puja in the prayer while Puja’s little girl is thinking about her next prank.*

  37. 2009 July 9

    reminds me of my friend who used to let his 3 yr old daughter a sip of beer sometimes. She used to sip and then squeeze her eyes shut at the bitter taste ;)

    me: Bitter is good but ‘yum’ isn’t. :|

    Kids are unbelievable these days. My nephew, who turns 6 next month, comes up with similar stuff and it is so embarrassing but so bloody cute at the same time!
    Gosh, what is blogging making us these days!!
    You won’t believe this but yesterday morning while coming to work, I was listening to this talk show on radio and one dude named ‘Rakesh’ called up and added some comments to the show. And instantly, the first thought that came to my mind was, is it apna brad pitt aka robin williams?!! ;)

    me: Robin Williams..

    Rakesh, are you listening? Btw, was it you? ;) Yesterday morning, around 9.30 am at Dubai eye radio?

    me: Depends upon the question. What was it? :lol:

    • 2009 July 10

      No Buddy it wasn’t me! But ya, this is what blogworld does to all of us :D

    Its a wonder child services are not beating down your door :D
    you cruel parents you!
    Peanut’s antics somehow remind me of that movie series and Macaulay Culkin :D
    Home Alone :D

    One day she might start telling the waiter not red wine the white one..thats better!!
    based on apple juice and soda and all :D

    me: Ha..ha..ha…

    Then you WILL be in trouble you wicked parents! :mrgreen:

    QI’s avataar is the cutest absolutely right! :D

    me: I know. QI’s is the first WP avatar that registered on my mind as a blogger.

    That guy who you thought was OG must be telling tales of a strange, strange woman (who probably showed all the signs of being a stalker :twisted: ) to his friends right about now

    u know soli….as a toddler, my mom used to always jokingly ask me, “chaddi pehena?”. and of all the chances i had, i dutifully reproduced that question to none other than my dad’s boss who had come over for lunch…..

    me: Oh my! you know Crafty..I was a bit irritated this morning because of a bad neck and read this and laughed so loud that the pain didn’t even bother me. Ha..ha.. gosh! you tried everything you can to embarrass your parents. Didn’t you? I have some from our childhood too. The one featuring my brother is the best but he sometimes drops in here and he would kill me if he reads that here. Ha..ha..ha..

    hoooo boy…..mom still shudders when she recites this to me….lol! :P

    I remember reading that EOG wala bit at his blog comments! i know what ur saying! other day my friend was buying a premium pen for her bro-in-law and told me, “shines try this….i think its not smooth….it feels a bit itchy sratchy” tee hee!!!

    there’s not an oreo pack i pass without thinking of peanut…..

    me: That’s because you know Peanut in real life, Vishal chachu and you are partial. :) Yes..sure.

    LoL! Solilo. I did that to my parent when I was little alot of time. I order Ribena and said it tasted like wine, and some other drink (can’t remember what) and said it tasted like brandy/whisky. ;-)

    BUT remember bloggers (and thinking you seen OG) is too good. ;-) :-P

    me: You are a cutie, Badzy.

    me: I don’t even have Beer. :(

      Really ? phir kaise pata chala ? Kids these days seem to know everything.

      me: I wash my hair with Beer. Ha..ha..ha..
      But of course she sees it at home when husband, her Mamu and others have it.

      hey btw do u have complete list of codes of new smilies of WP ? I mean link ?
      Some of the old codes does not seem to work. :(
      me: No. I use old code but I guess they are still working on it as some emoticons give the same result. No idea.

  62. 2009 July 10

    hehehe Peanut is so sweet :-)

    BTW going by the way you recognise bloggers, I hope u don’t feel every lady holding a mug is me ;-)

    me: In Mumbai (you are in Mumbai, right) , any girl with Book in one hand and Coffee in another is you Smita. Ha..ha.. :lol:

  63. 2009 July 11

    Hehehe! Like this other time, someone asked my 10-year-old niece at a party what she’d like to drink and she said, “Wine. I only drink in wine!” Her parents were embarrassed and aghast!

    me: I tell you..kids are born to avenge us. :lol:

    ROFL! Good going, Peanut! And yes, blogging does this to people. The other day, I heard someone standing outside the dressing room ‘Hey, are you going to blog about this?’ And I felt a great urge to peep out and see who the blogger was, and if I knew her in Cyberspace. Just that the damn top was stuck halfway and I didn’t want to risk frightening off the poor girl.

    me: Where were you, Pallu? Ha..ha.. there is a blogger everywhere now.

    I think all parents must be concerned – sometimes we can’t say whether it was an innocent talk or planned beforehand – kids are so intelligent these days :-)

    me: Ha..ha.ha.. how old were you?
