Instant Disapproval

(I come downstairs one morning and find my parents and my brother at the breakfast table, having a discussion.)

Mom: “But I put an egg in it, right? That makes it healthy, right?”

Brother: “I don’t think it works that way, mom.”

Me: “What’s going on?”

Dad: “Your mother’s trying to come up with an excuse to eat instant ramen noodles for breakfast.”

Mom: “Am not!”
