A conversation between Mom and I

[everjaime]

Mom: Jemmy, do you want me to send you some ginger?
Me: Ginger? What? No. What am I gonna do with a hunk of ginger? Can you even mail ginger?
Mom: It'll help your cough and then, you can cook with whatever's left over.
Me: Firstly, I never use ginger when I cook. Ever. And secondly, I could just take some cough medicine.
Mom: Jemmy, those medicines

Ahhh, the joy of having ethnic parents. You know, I'd consider getting a doctorate just to prove to my mom that I could indeed be a doctor, but she'd probably tell me that I got it out of a cereal box or something.

ginger is great on chicken.

... just saying.

I only like two ginger flavored items -- ale and bread. Anything else is just odd, but thanks for the tip :)

Thanks! My mom's actually the entertainer of the family -- she once complimented my sister by saying she wasn't retarded and once yelled at me because I was 'walking too loudly.'
