Taterhenge

Over dinner of mashed potatoes, steamed green beans, and elk burgers, Jennifer took up one of her butter soaked green beans in hand and started flipping it around as though it were dancing.
"Cut that out. Don't play with your food," I barked.
"What about Taterhenge?"
"That was totally different", I replied.
"What about the 'Leaning Tower of Tater'?" she queried.
She was referring, of course, to some impromptu replicas of famous structures I'd built with tater tots in my dinner plate last weekend.
"Those were culturally significant...historical artifacts," I complained.
"So that's different than a steamed green bean doing the conga?" she clarified.
"Absolutely. Taterhenge is essentially a history lesson, taught through the medium of tater tots. Same goes for the 'Leaning Tower of Tater'."
I hate that she's getting older and wiser. I'm not sure how much longer I can convince her that "father knows best" at this rate.

Did you ever make a model of Devil's Tower out of mashed potatoes?

I've not made one yet...I'll work on it.
