A big bowl of irony...

For years Jen has teased me about how many boxes of Cheerios I buy at a time (hey, they're always on sale and they make so many different kinds).  But early last week we were down to just one box and I  feeling proud about how close I was to "clearing" all that cupboard space.  As I ate a bowl, Ana seemed especially interested, so I offered her a single "O".  Her eyes lit up.  A day or two later I was taking the Cheerios box down for what I thought would be the final bowl when Jen announced: "Hey, don't eat any of Ana's Cheerios.  We're almost out."  "Ana's Cheerios?" I asked.  "Yes," Jen said.  "She loves them."  Ana sat there, smug.  I now check with "the girls" before eating a bowl, to make sure I am not putting a dent in our precious Cheerio's supply.
