Is This Commentary On My Cooking?

We're playing this game where no one is allowed to answer a question directly. Instead clues, pantomimes and reverse questions are allowed.

"Mom, what are we having for dinner?"

Mother makes a patting motions with her hands, reversing the top and bottoms hands a couple of times.

"Huh? Patty cake?"

Mother repeats motions and acts like she's taking a bite out of something that must be held with both hands.

"I don't get it."

"Moooooo," Mother says, again repeating the actions.

"We're having cow patties for supper?"

Mother dies laughing.
