Anyway, tonight perfectly captured what I mean:
Mikey was hungry and looking for a snack in the fridge. I was in the bathroom giving Hunter a bath when he came in.
Mikey: Dana, could have have some of that stuff in the fridge? You know, that round stuff.
???
Me: Well, what round stuff. Use your words. <-- thanks for that one mom.
Mkey: You know, the ummm.... *lightbulb* CHINESE BREAD!
?????? So here I am thinking, round and bread-like.
Me: Do you mean tortillas?
Mikey: NO! Not tortillas. Chinese Bread.
We had just eaten Chinese food the night before so I was really racking my brain. Then, magically it clicked.
Me: Do you mean English Muffins?
Mikey: Oh ya. That's what they're called. Can I have one of those?
I am still a little amazed that a five year old mind could associate nationalities like that. And the mix-up is something I would totally do. :)
