What Pirates Say When They're Alone

Pirates of the CaribbeanWhile I was putting away the clean laundry I overhead the following exchange coming from my bedroom:

Will Turner: Look everyone I baked you some cookies!

Jack Sparrow: Pirates don't like cookies. We like creme brulee.

That's hysterical! It reminds me too of when my sister and I were little. My mother was making quiche and my sister announced that she wasn't going to eat it. My response to her? "YOU are not a gourmet. *I* am a gourmet. I am going to try it first and then ask for soup!"

I always knew pirates were more cultured than we gave them credit for.

But your blog is making me hungry...

Classic. We've just hit the age here where everything has a voice. Except Zaya narrates. It's "I want some cookies", said the Lion puppet.

Well gosh, that's not surprising! Can't you tell in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies how refined Jack Sparrow's taste is? (He's just confirming it here.)

So can I safely assume that it is Jack who is holding the green parasol? He's such a dandy, that Jack.

This is so funny. Recently, Cedar chose a book called "Captain and Matey" at the library. Matey wants to to grow a big garden and use jewels to make crowns. Captain believes that all pirates need to know how to dance. I bet they'd like creme broulee too.

Nicole said...

Wow. Such big words. I am impressed. I love the way kids play. It makes my heart smile.

Kimo and Sabi said...

They probably like fishy flakes too!

PunditMom said...

I always thought Jack Sparrow had that sensitive, dessert side! ;)
