What's for dinner?

So on the way home from church we got the age old question from the kids... "What's for dinner?" we told them "Chicken pot pie" to which Ryan replies "I HATE PIE! I NEVER EAT PIE!" so I ask what do you want for dinner and Kyle says "Mac-n-Cheese". And altough that is a delicacy it's not one I particularly like -maybe it's an acquired taste I don't know. Anyway we say "nope" and we get the "ahh... why not?" Which we let hang in the air as it's just too tiring to go into that level of detail every time we have the "Mac-n-Cheese" as the main /only course for dinner discussion with Kyle and Ryan. So we get home and Ryan asks again "What's for dinner?" I decide to think outside the pastry crust and reply, "A chicken stew with vegetables and a cream based sauce served in individual mini pots with a fine flaky pastry topping" IE:
So we sit down and Ryan says... "hum that looks a like like pie" I said "yeah it kind of does." He then starts to eat and says, "I like this chicken stew with the flaky pastry topping".
So I guess it's all in the presentation...
