Is That a Bat?

Tonight Peter steamed some cauliflower and totally forgot about it. About half an hour later, we're watching late night television and we hear this squeaking and whistling noise. Peter keeps saying, "Pause the TV!" and, "What's that noise?" The best one was, "Is that a bat?"

I told him that it sounded like a rice cooker.

Finally, he got up and walked around the apartment, something a normal person would have done the second he heard that noise. When he got to the kitchen, he said, "Oh yeah! I'm steaming cauliflower!"
