Definition of quid pro quo...

My mom, 86 with advancing short-term memory, asked me 3 times last week what it means. I explained the same way each time..."this for that, I'll do this for you if you'll do that for me".

Fast forward to yesterday. She told me she knows what quid pro quo means. I humored her, and asked her. Her answer was priceless:

"I'll tell you, but you gotta buy me lunch."

Yeah, she got it.
