'What's to fall for?......Its ICE CREAM'


Okay, am I the only one out there who almost choked to death when he says this line to his mom?

Best line in the whole movie!

Thanks, you guys. So glad I'm not the only one who thought that was hysterical.

You know you're getting older when you start to thing anything food related is a "conspiracy."

The whole freezer bit was so hilarious. The ice cream, cheese, salad ... lol
It reminds me of my Mother so much. She freezes everything.


"Where's the sherbert, mother?"
"It's there, beneath the layer of protective ice..."

The first time I saw this "It tastes like an orange foot" had me laughing till I cried, literally. It still gets me chuckling, even as I think about it now.
Mother rocks!
When I went to see this movie I asked my sister if she had seen Mother, "Have you seen Mother?" meaning the movie, I wasn't thinking too clearly I guess. She took it to mean had she seen our mother recently.

I laughed so much at that part, too...Particularly, as my Mum would have ice cream for ages until it was freezer-burnt and say, 'It's just fine, what's the matter with you?'!

I cringe at all the freezing, anyway. I hate to freeze cheese; it gets such a weird consistency and gets all crumbly. And FREEZING salads?! Ick!! I could never eat lettuce that had been frozen. And his being a vegetarian is funny to me, too, because I'm also a vegetarian and people get really strange about it sometimes. His mother trying to separate the food in the refrigerator so none of hers will touch any of his, and trying to get two baskets at the market...makes me laugh really hard.
