the cutting board song

September 8th, 2008

The backstory: Troy is good at making up little songs, and funny new lyrics to old songs. For some reason, the cutting board song has become a family classic, and we both find ourselves humming or singing it when we’re taking out a cutting board. Even my friend Erin sings it.

Yesterday as Annalie and I walked to our car at the mall, I said, “Hey, we could make the cutting board song into the parking lot song!” As we walked along I sang, “Parkin’ lot, parkin’ lot, parkin’ parkin’ parkin’ parkin’ lot,” while Annalie laughed. Then as she climbed into her carseat she started singing the cutting board song. I whipped out the camera and asked if she’d sing it again for me so I could take a movie.

This one’s for you, Auntie Erin!

    I just saw the title and started singing it! And then thought of the cotton ball song and the telephone song and the Leo Peo song. And of course I think of Troy every time I pull out a cutting board and have a little song:)
