Assisted Procrastination

Conversation with The Kid just moments ago:

The Kid:  Are we having anything special for dinner tomorrow night?
Me:  Yup – a spiral baked ham!
The Kid:  Isn’t that what we had last night when Grandma was here?
Me:  No, that was prime rib.
The Kid:  Wait – Isn’t that ham?
Me:  No – it’s beef.
The Kid: [confused look]
Me: It’s like having steaks only they aren’t cut into slices until AFTER it’s cooked.
The Kid:  Ohhh! I thought that was horse!
Me:  [stunned silence] . . . No.

(Just for the record, I’ve never eaten horse, considered eating horse, or considered feeding it to my family.)
