Did I Mention My Mom’s a Nurse, and That I’m a Spinster Lady?

Ma Smash: I got here right in time to see him born.

Me: No way! He was waiting!

Ma Smash: Yup! Three pushes and he was out.

Me: Ew.

Ma Smash: Oh, look! Here comes the placenta!

Me: EW.

Ma Smash: That’s so interesting. You know, it looks just like cube steak!

Welcome to planet earth, Baby Oz Piddlington. Your Mommy is brave and your Gramma is ridiculous.

At one point, my sister lived in a clown house (i.e., a house owned and occupied by two couples who were all professional clowns, plus their families). The owner of the house told her that after his daughter was born, he fried up the placenta with some garlic. He said it was delicious. Clearly he and Ma Smash should compare notes.
