hello fellow sniffers and parent lovers if you don't know what a sniffer is man
you aren't missing out my name is Marlene McCohen and this is my African
Grey Cody and today we are here to tell you a story time Sunday
now you guys probably know what it means since Cody's on my shoulder yes the
story is going to be about an African Grey he's probably thinking to himself
why all the African Grey stories and it's never about me why is that we got
to tell a Cody story today is it going to be a Jorge story you guys know about
Jorge my African Grey he was my most special beloved bird in
the world I loved telling George stories cuz then
George lives on and it makes me really happy to know that you guys still got a
chance to know him but also his stories are just so great I just love Jorge
stories today Jorge story is going to involve my mother now I'm saying it that
way because my first youtube video ever I know I've told you guys this story
before but my first youtube video ever I talked for about two minutes into it and
then suddenly I say you know what I want to talk about my mother
and then I forgot I did that and my mother aka CNN found the video that is a
story in itself I will find it and put the link down below in case you want to
watch the first video ever ever ever ever ever I made on YouTube I'll put
that link for you too and you could just imagine you're my mother snooping around
looking for gossip about me and then finding that two minutes into the video
with that got sup in history let me tell you this story my African Grey George
was used to eating fruits that Stables and of course his pellets and
his seeds and then one day my mother came to visit if you guys know anything
about my mom well you probably don't know anything about my mom so let me set
this up my mom does not cook okay when we were kids we always ate but I don't
remember her cooking like ever I remember the result is dinner but I
don't remember her cooking and I honestly can't blame her because I'm
exactly the same way you do not want me in the kitchen if I do something in the
kitchen it's really exciting I'm gonna tell you guys kind of a little bit of a
secret if I do set my mind to cooking something I make it really really good
and it's always some exotic dish Jenna will be like oh my god I think you're
actually the best cook at the family and then I'm like no and done because like I
don't want him to expect it from me you know so then I go back to really me cook
in the kitchen I don't think so well my mother is kind of the same way I
inherited from her the cleaning gene but not the cooking gene so imagine my
surprise when my mother came to visit and decided to make a breakfast here's
an example my dad has always been known as kind of like the cook in the family
and just like the efficient person at getting everybody fed like he's really
bothered by anyone being hungry whether there's a hundred people in the house or
two or just me dad really really worries about that and
that's like his priority my mother has a famous saying that goes like this what
do you think I am your mother we go to visit my mom at her house she'll
literally say okay the first breakfast I make but after that you're all on your
own cuz she's really excited that we're
visiting so she like makes a breakfast but if dad's avail and doing it then
dad's doing it now with that being said she's Irish so she's excellent at making
tea and I'm not talking about like the American Irish like born and raised in
so it's tea time when you wake up it's tea time when it's afternoon it's tea
time before you do something and after you have accomplished something if you
go to the mall then on the way home she's thinking about the tea I'd love to
have any cup of tea then of course before bed and after dinner it is tea
time that's how my mom lives I got that from
her tube so at my house it's also all this tea time
I could totally Jol out the tea but not the dinner
on this particular day my mom decides to make breakfast and I also think she
makes things really well but she pretends that she doesn't cuz she
doesn't like to do it because this was kind of an elaborate breakfast just a
whole bunch of stuff and then she made something then as far as I knew when we
were kids we never had anything like this we're also very foreign in a way so
I also have never had a pancake or a waffle or a peanut butter and jelly
sandwich those were not like the normal things
that were in our house and nobody made them I've still never had one because I
never actually liked anything like that mom made some sort of home fries like
potatoes that were fried man potatoes are my favorite food probably because I
am half Irish I just am a sucker for potatoes I love
them I love them so much so imagine my surprise when my mother makes this
potato breakfast potatoes and tomatoes and all sorts of like just a beautiful
well-rounded breakfast well then guess what mom does she gives one of her
potatoes to the bird and tells him french fry George is eating this potato
and loving it and you know there's nothing really wrong with potatoes but
you really want to try to not give the birds fried foods
I was really all about keeping him healthy and making sure that he's
eating his fruits and vegetables but now he has had a potato like a french fry
like a yummy dreamy french fried potato so he eats it Annie loves it and it's
cute and I say oh you like the French fry how cute yeah french fries and then
my mom's like you see he loves my breakfast she's all happy that he loves
her breakfast but later if I'm like hey MA
you know that wonderful breakfast I don't make breakfast I don't know what
you're talking about I don't recall making any breakfast ever
mom how come we never had home fries when I was a kid you did you had it all
the time I'm like really cuz I kind of remember living off the macaroni and
cheese that my brother made after school the next day I'm eating breakfast and I
give my bird something like a carrot or a cucumber and what does he do he throws
it literally flings with bang across the room and says French fry I'm like oh no
I'm like come on George do you really like cucumbers isn't that fun eat the
cucumber no I bring it back to him throws it across the room
french fry no George we don't have french fries then he goes up to my
mother and says time for french fry Oh No we've created like a toddler monster
that's demanding his favorite food and not caring about his health obviously
what does he care he just wants french fries
George was able to implement words into sentences so I always taught him time
for but didn't matter that I never said time for french fry he could say time
for anything he wanted so any new thing that he learned about he would just say
time for that I don't think we made any french fries that day but all day he
talked about french fries the next day mom mix her fries again oh no mom look I
don't want him to see them I don't want him to get used to them and he sees them
and he's like french fried french fry time for a french fry so of course like
she gives him one all day he's talking about french fries especially if my mom
puts a pan to the oven he thinks a french fry is about to happen to him
that kind of dies down I mean there were many more days where he asked me for
french fries then he knew exactly what french fries
look like he would ask for them all the time one day I am out at lunch with my
friend and my friend is like on a very serious diet she's like doing that
saying where she only eats salads and you know we get this big salad she was
really good at keeping to her diet so I'm thinking to myself I'll try to stick
to it too we'll both be healthy and then my friend orders french fries I'm
shocked why are you ordering french fries you're totally against carbs yeah
we're like those la girls you don't want carbs you've never seen a car me on the
other hand I'm like the skinny fat vegan you know that all I want is potatoes if
I can get them why is she ordering french fries it's
the biggest temptation for me so I say to her why are you ordering french fries
she's like oh for your bird he asked me for them before I left oh I know I take
birds very seriously I know you guys take birds very seriously she was a
really good friend but we're like she basically was at my apartment thinking
oh we're gonna leave we're gonna go have lunch and it's almost like the bird said
to her bye bring me back some french fries thanks I'll pay you later it's
just like she took it so logically oh okay the bird asked me for fries so I
should bring the bird back fries part of me just thinking oh my god she's such a
good friend like she gets it she's taking the bird seriously and then part
of me is like what is my bird planning without me
because he knows I'm trying not to give him french fries he went behind my back
and asked her for french fries he probably knew I was gonna go out and eat
them myself and he was like yo when you're out bring me back some of those
and then her thought process to just be like oh yeah okay cool I'll get you
those no problem it's like so many things are happening there one they have
their own relationship to she took the bird seriously three the bird is serious
there's so much going on and it's just so funny and then four you realize that
birds are so human especially african greys and Amazons and I mean they're all
human don't get me wrong though when they can talk like a human the other
person like feels compelled to answer them like they're a human that's why
we're all bird crazy because we know this huge secret in the universe that
the Cinderella stories that we watched and we're like oh no I wish birds could
really do that they really do like they do I'm here to tell you it's like they
do it's amazing it was mind-blowing for me it made me happy because I was like
what a good friend what a good bird what a genius and oh my god that naughty
little bird there were so many elements to it that excited me of course why I
remember it till this day that I had to tell you this story it's kind of similar
to my other story time that I told you guys about George where he asked for the
juice I think I told you guys that story I don't even remember anymore but that
is basically that's my story time Sunday I hope from this you understand how
smart they are if you don't have a bird I mean it's just mind-blowing and I hope
you enjoyed this story it's probably more mind-blowing if you don't have a
bird if you do have a bird you know that you know that this is them that is it
