Best Thing / Worst Thing

[beachbaby179]

This started out as something I did with my kids when they got to the age where every question is answered with one word. Me: How was school? Him: Good. Me: Did you learn anything interesting? Him: No.
And so on... so one night I asked a question that couldn't be answered with only one word and it's become a tradition at our dinner table. I say "best thing/worst thing" and everyone goes around and says the best thing that happened to them that day, and the worst thing. I'll start.
B - I made the most delicious soup EVER today for the first time.
W - My son came for dinner, had a fight with his dad (again) and left after only about 1/2 hour. This was the first time I'd seen him in a week.

OK - go... let's see if I can get more than four posts before this thing goes down in flames.
