Knock your socks off
I had one of the kids in the kitchen make a family meal the other day. He wanted to make cheese steaks and he wanted to do it his way.
I watched as he dropped about 12 whole chipotles into about 4-people's worth of meat.
"You might want to be careful with those," I said trying to let him figure out his mistake.
"I like hot food," he said.
I sat and watched him try and force down what must've been the hottest sandwich of his life. His pride prevented him from saying that he put too many chipotle's in, but the beads of sweat on his forehead and upper lip told me that he probably would think twice before doing that again.
(The other three sandwiches he made for the other guys oin the line went untouched.)
