This made me laugh out loud, Yingying! Of all the things my parents taught us at our dinner table, they were most insistent upon keeping our mouths closed when we were chewing food. Thank you for so delightfully reminding me that equally loving parents, who are devoted to helping their children grow, can have very different approaches to what that means. Ever cheerfully and playfully on-word, @L
