Scene - planning a menu for a triathlon club meeting we’re hosting.

YESTERDAY
Me: Okay, we can make, like, buffalo chicken dip or a spinach dip…have a veggie tray…
R: Well, we always have, like, MEALS at these meetings. Like sandwiches and stuff.

TODAY
Me: So I have homemade spinach dip, feta-stuffed cherry tomatoes, and rosemary chicken sandwiches with balsamic and gorgonzola on the menu.
R: You’re doing WAY too much. We never have MEALS, just snacks and stuff.
