Chai Tea Latte
The other day B took J to Starbucks because he needed some coffee and J got a cinnamon roll and an organic milk. J thought that was really neat. He was bragging to K about going to the "coffee shop" with his dad and K was very upset. I took her that afternoon so it would be fair. This morning J and I went to pick K up from school and J asks if we can "go to chai tea latte." I laughed and asked if he meant Starbucks and he said yes. I guess J was a bit confused due to the fact that the words chai tea latte are an ongoing joke in our house. Several weeks ago I went to a drive thru coffee shop and I ordered a chai tea latte and the lady just looked at me and said she didn't know what I was talking about. I explained to her that I had had them there before. So I slowly said chai tea latte again. Finally the light came on and she said, "I didn't understand you because of your accent." Now I am in Oklahoma but come on it isn't like I speak with a foreign accent. Texas really isn't that different from Oklahoma. My husband finds this the perfect opportunity to make fun of my Texas accent although he is from Texas too.

That is so funny. When I moved to Oklahoma, you would have thought I was talking another language. I had to spell things all the time. And now a year went by that during the first few weeks of school the kids would laugh when I called out a nine! I like it better here in Houston where we all talk the same : )
Well, y'all do talk funny - just kidding ;) That is so funny!!
