I didn't mean it literally

I didn't mean it literally, I mean it's just a silly endearment. For goodness sakes my Grandma used to say it to me when I was little and I never once thought she meant it really.
I was simply referring to the outfit she had chosen for the day, it made her look adorable and cute and I said it without thinking,
I didn't think she would take me so literally. Not that I'm complaining mind you.
All i said was "You look so cute I could eat you with a spoon." and the next thing I know.....

 

And I'm absolutely sure I never mentioned anything about a fork!!!
