Original Face
Jerrie: I don't like my face...

Mum: Not nice? What's an "original face"?
Jerrie: You know, just like cakes, you have "original cake" without any flavour, and other different types of cakes...
Mum: You mean plain?
Jerrie: Yah...

Look at my hungry face!
4-yr old Jackie: Mummy, you see what happened to my face...look at my face. (Jackie's sulking)
Mum: Oh, what happened to your face, Jackie? (Puzzled, mum touched Jackie's face.)
