Please keep in mind we’ve been watching, “Ghosts” recently.
Me, trepidatiously: I know you didn’t do this, but I’m wondering if you know about it. The butter dish in the kitchen was flipped over and the block of butter was sitting on top of the microwave.
Austin, enthusiastically: I know exactly what happened. The rice container fell off the top of the refrigerator and it landed upside down. Since it was upside down, I put my hand on the lid and turned it right-side up, so I only lost probably a cup of rice. I was too busy with the rice, but it probably hit the butter dish on the way down.
Me: Oh. That’s good. I left a pad of paper and a pencil on the counter and called out to Mom that if she could arrange our butter that way, she could write a message.
Austin: No, we’re not leaving out pads of paper for your mother. She can leave messages on mirrors just like every other ghost.
