Too Much Food-Network TV

So Rose comes in from playing in the sprinkler on the lawn.

"Mom, could you make me some lemonade?"

OK, I suppose I could do that. Nice day for it.

"And could I have it in a wine-glass?"

Wine-glass?! We negotiate down to a glass mug instead.

Then she hands me a fresh-picked berry from our strawberry patch.

"Garnish. Just stick it on the edge."

I'm not sure whether to blame the Barefoot Contessa or Giada de Laurentis. But it's all about the Food Network, I just know it!
