Family codes and ritualsFreddy Woo writes, "as a child we used to have a 'whoever cuts doesn't choose the slice' rule with cake. It worked brilliantly, but it's left me completely anal about dividing up food - my wife just takes the piss as I ritually compare all the slice sizes."
What codes and rituals does your family have?

JAFFA!!!In the days of my childhood, we used to have 'family fun' (i use the term very loosely) playing such games as trivial persuit.
Said game is the most mind numbing experience a child could ever have inflicted upon oneself.
However, there was one occasion where my sister was asked the question
"What kind of orange has the same name as your belly button?"*
My sister in all her childish panicky knowledge immediately shouted JAFFA!!
And from that day on your belly button is known as your jaffa!
I have a wierd family.
(*for those of you who don't know, the answer is navel.)

My sisterWe call my sister Jaffa. This is because she's brown on top and squidgy in the middle.
