DaVinci Has His Last Supper, I Have This

Nearly two years ago, we were hosting Christmas at our house. As we were piling the food onto the table and guests and family members settling themselves in, I opened a couple of bottles of wine and began pouring. As I did so, I called out "Who wants Merlot?".

From the living room, the 1 1/2 year old voice of RC answered enthusiastically "I do!".

It's gone on to become a standing family joke, with someone or other yelling out the question and the rest of us replying, Marco Polo-style.

Today, HRH brought this home from school:

DaVinci can have his Last Supper, I'm going to frame this work of art to be immortalized in our dining room.

  1. Without question I would frame that and put it in the dining room. Classic.

  2. A wonderful tribute to inside jokes and invented spelling. Classic.

  3. That is absolutely fantastic. I love family jokes. You should make photocopies and give framed versions to everyone for Christmas. Or better yet, have it be the front of your family holiday cards!!

  7. I stopped over to check out your site because of a funny comment you had left on another (Motherhood uncensored I think) and I just wanted to say you a great blog from what I flipped through so far.

    Love the new artwork!
