Slurpee, spelled with an "ee"

A bike ride for Owen, a fast walk for me.  After about 4 miles, we were hot and tired.  About 5 minutes from home, mostly uphill, Owen was fading fast. Once I suggested stopping at 7-11 for a Slurpee, he suddenly found the energy to make it home.

Owen, at 7-11: "Slurpee is spelled with an 'ee'?!  I thought it HAD to be with an 'ie'!"
