Oma, Mommy and Todd stopped by El Pollo Loco for lunch after running some errands. They have a GREAT value menu, most items for $1. As I was ordering our lunch, Todd stared up at the menu and pondered its contents. He knew what he wanted. He just didn't know what it was called. Finally, he piped up with:
"Mommy, what's that thing with the crumbs?"
I stared at the menu. I couldn't find anything with crumbs! I thought maybe he meant the flan, since we'd recently had flan at home. Nope. Then I spied the salads, with their little tortilla chip strips on top-- could those be "crumbs"? I asked him what color they were, and he said "brown". I still didn't get it.
Everytime I guessed (wrong) and said "Is it X?" Todd became indignant and cried out "NO!!! With the CRUMBS!!!" as if in disbelief at my inability to see what was right in front of my nose.
Eventually I figured it out. It WAS an item from the dollar menu, not just the regular menu. See if you can figure out what he meant:

Grandma got it :-) Perhaps he should've gone with you, then he wouldn't have been so frustrated!
Yeah, but I had it easy, it was narrowed down to the dollar menu !!
