At dinner last night, Son D turned to me and asked, "Mama, what does 'imported' mean?"
My eyes lit up - finally, someone in my family who is genuinely interested in the economics of global trade! I envisioned evenings by the fire, debating NAFTA with my second-born.
I launched into an explanation of world trade, giving specific examples where possible (i.e. why Daddy spends so much time in Asia...)
After I concluded, I said, "So what made you ask that?"
He replied: "Well, Sharpay uses towels imported from Turkey. And she's fabulous."
