When not to answer...
Last year, every morning around the breakfast table, we did a page-a-day Mad Lib calendar (which is probably why, in his teacher's words, my second grader "smokes everyone in class when it comes to parts of speech.") We're also on our second year of Will Shortz' PuzzleMaster presents, so he's no stranger to word play.
He frequently mashes words together, spoonerizes, etc. Which brings us to what he did with tonight's dinner entree, "Popcorn Shrimp."
First question: "Dad, what's Shropcorn?" I answer "I have no idea."
Next question" "What's Pimp?" "Hmm...Shropcorn Pimp, huh?" :-D
