Winning at infuriating

One of my little rules is that we use placemats at the table. at least 3 of our 5 family members can be pretty messy (raises hand), so this keeps me from changing the tablecloth every day.
Yesterday,  reminded me 14 year old to use a placemat when eating and she groaned and said, "Mooom. This must be your most infuriating trait!"
At first I was insulted, until I realised that if the thing a 14 year old girl finds most infuriating about her mother is her insistence on using placemats, that's pretty good.
