When Life Deals You a Lemon, You Need to Know What It Means

The kitchen tap was left open and the sink overflowed. Mom was looking at it despairingly.
Me, the Sunshine girl, took over the matter.

Me: Amma, dont worry. Lets take this chance and clean the floor, its already soaked. Haven't you heard the expression "If life deals you lemons make lemonade"??
Mom: No.
Me: Well, life gives you a lemon, you can make a sourface or a sweet lemonade. Its how you look at it.
Mom: Ah. So what if I don't like lemonade?
Me: Its a proverb!!
Mom: Ooh! OK.

After five minutes.
Mom: Diabetic people really don't like lemonade, you know?
Me: MAA!!!
