Corn Chicken

Matt here again.  Two posts in the same dayy.  Go fig.  This morning I was taking the kids to daycare after working a night shift.  I asked Stephen what he wanted for dinner tonight after I picked them up.  With no hesitation he said, "Corn-Chicken."

I had no idea what he was talking about.  He answered with a certainty that indicated I should know though.
M: "You want corn and chicken tonight?"
S: "No.  Corn chicken."

I thought he had maybe seen a commercial for something.
M: "You want popcorn chicken?"
S: (laughing) "You don't eat popcorn with chicken."

I wasn't getting it. 
M: "Do you want corn on the cob?"
S: "No. Corn chicken.  Like we had on St. Patrick's Day."

Finally lightbulbs went off and I busted up laughing hysterically which is pretty hard to get me to do at 6:30 am after a night shift. 
M: "OH!!!  You want corned beef!!"
S: "Yeah.  Corn-beef."

Gotta love leftovers . . .
