In the car, we heard some guys talking about the tornado that touched down in a town west of the Twin Cities, leading to this exchange:
Man on radio: People on the ground say a tornado touched down in Spicer not that long ago.
Siena: Spicy? A tornado?
Matt: Spicer. It’s near where our friends were married a few years ago.
Siena: But why would it be a Spicer tornado?
Siena: The tornado wasn’t spicy, sweety. That’s where it touched ground.
Siena: Oh. (and then whispering, as she looks out the window, as she realizes her mistake) Spicy tornado…
Of course, Elliot then had to chime in with “Spicy? Spicy? Todando?” The next three minutes explaining it to a two-year-old were great.
