And here we have a Bonus Quote starring Daddy – which explains where Tori gets her confusion in the top quote from:
*making scones*
Mummy: It’s your bit now. Roll it out with the rolling pin.
Daddy: What do I do? How? *ignores rolling pin and pokes dough in a puzzled manor*
Mummy: No, roll it. With the rolling pin.
Daddy: *picks up rolling pin and turns slowly in a circle*
Mummy: *resists urge to headbutt kitchen surface* The dough. Roll the dough.
Daddy: Oh! *rolls dough*


This made me laugh out loud!
