Third Time's a Charm

My mom and I went shopping today and on the way home, she spotted an apple in the middle of the road. She tried to run over it but missed, so she turned the car around and tried again...and missed. Unsatisfied, she turned around AGAIN and drove slowly to make sure we smashed it. Only when she saw in the rear view mirror that she had sufficiently flattened it did she give a laugh and drive us home.
