Just the facts, Ma'am

For those of you who have yet to meet my husband, Brian has the DRIEST humor in the known world! Our family went grocery shopping the other day, crazy for the Saturday before Christmas but it had to be done. We were getting some bananas when this "sweet" older lady approached us. She was greatly concerned about the small size of some of the bananas. When she questioned me about them, I respectfully told her that they were plantains and they are meant to be small. She became so flustered and once again questioned me ~ this time about whether they were edible or not. Brian popped up at this point and replied, "Little monkeys eat them" and then we walked away. You should have seen her face!
