how bout

Today is a day for “how bout”.  My mom has told me often that I was always her great negotiator and if she said no to one of my requests I would often go to my room and think for a time then come back with a “how bout” then begin my reasons why I should get what I wanted.  She says on occasion this actually worked.  Today is a day to call on that little negotiator, I have to go to within for a time and think. .
