White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs flashed his hand at the White House press corps to jab former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

Among the things he’d written in dark pen were his grocery shopping list.

“I wrote a few things down… eggs, milk and bread,” Gibbs said.

This was, of course, a reference to Palin’s notes she wrote on her hand during the question-and-answer portion of her address to the Tea Party Nation this weekend in Nashville.

As the reporters in the room laughed, Gibbs added, “But I crossed out bread, just so I can make pancakes for Ethan if it snows. And then I wrote down ‘hope and change,’ just in case I forgot.”

That was another crack at Palin, who asked Obama supporters, “How’s that hopey-changey thing working out for ya?”

Here’s the video.
