Imogen: Mummy, I just love this tomato sauce. You are the best tomato sauce maker ever.
Me: Um, thanks Imogen. Why are you making that face if you like the sauce?
Imogen: Because it's gross.

Mummy, maybe when our car gets a little bit tired of being blue, we can paint it with lots of rainbows.

Imogen and I eavesdropped on the following conversation in a pet store today:
Man: So you mean none of these pets do tricks?
Pet Store Employee: No sir. Rodents and reptiles don't typically do tricks.
Man: Not even this one? (pointing to a gerbil.)
Employee: No sir, none of them do tricks.
Man: What about this one (pointing to another gerbil.)
Employee: No, none of these animals will do tricks.
Man: My daughter is 6 and I only want an animal that will do a trick.
Employee: In that case, you might need to consider adopting a cat or a dog from the shelter.
Man: What about this one? (pointing to the same gerbil as earlier)
Imogen, loudly: Mummy, I think that man is really stupid and should learn his own tricks.

Mummy, I want to be the the leader, okay? I'm running ahead. And you have to be the behinder.

Imogen, on Toy Story 3:
Mummy, that is one eNORmous movie that Athena-bear's uncle made. And I loved it so much. That's because it was so funny like Athena-bear's daddy. I liked it when the peas were in Mr. Potato Head's butt. I think David told his brother that part. That's because David thinks peas in butts are funny too.

Imogen: Merry Christmas Mum!
Me: Imogen, it's actually Canada Day.
Imogen: Merry Christmas and Happy Canada Day, Mum!
Family members who were much amused by Imogen's insistence on today being Christmas also got her wishing people Happy Easter. I guess since we're not very patriotic, it doesn't much matter. Imogen is happy as heck that it's Christmas, although a little annoyed that we have neither stockings nor a tree...
