Middle Boy and I have been having a discussion about peas for TWO DAYS now.  Tonight I decided to just settle the discussion.

The last time we were at the grocery store he had requested we buy canned peas...so I did.  The can of peas is labeled "sweet peas". 

For the last two days he has been insisting I bought sweet peas and not regular peas and he wanted regular peas.  I have been insisting they are the same thing.

Tonight after yet another discussion on peas I was done.  We stopped at the store.  I gave him a five dollar bill and told him to run in and grab two cans of "regular" peas.

Waited outside for 20 minutes with Younger Boy.  Middle Boy came out empty handed.  Where were the regular peas?  He said they were "completely out" of regular peas and all they had was "sweet peas".  I asked him if he asked them.  Was there an empty spot on the shelf where the "regular peas" are normally stocked?  There was NO WAY he was going to concede I was right.  Finally after my barrage of questions he determined perhaps I was right, but he wants to try another store to be sure.

Fine, but not tonight!  The next time we are at the store check to your heart's content.
