'I'd say your caravan's a tad overloaded, sir.'

"Who ordered the double chocolate parfait with a cherry on top?"

Chez Nous Menu

'I'm worried about him, he eats his vegetables, but not his dessert!'

"Mom, does the Russian borscht you made for dinner give me foreign-policy experience?"

"Be sure and eat your frozen vegetables."

'Thanksgiving's no holiday for turkeys or the women who cook them.'

"Can you turn these mashed potatoes into french fries?"

"Tia Carmen, if you had a bucket list, what would you put in it?"

A man and baby wearing bibs

"Can you reinvent the classic grilled cheese for me?"

'A hacker broke into our computer and, in an act of human kindness, deleted your mother's recipe for peppers and meat loaf.'

"Teddy, you call this a 'clean room'?"

"You're close, but you're not the record. The record for one family in one booth—all from out of state, each ordering a complete breakfast—was set in 1978, with fifteen."

Excess Baggage: The younger the traveler, the greater the amount of luggage required.

"Tonight, we'll be eating hot dogs with a mustard-ketchup-and-pickle purée, accompanied by peas lightly sprinkled with ketchup. Then fettuccine al dente with a ketchup sauce, followed by applesauce maison with a dollop of you know what!"

"Apparently it's my fault, somehow, that we have an S.U.V."
