The other night I fixed some kind of chicken dish for dinner. For the life of me, I can't remember what it was, but it really doesn't matter. The kids first reaction to my cooking is rarely a positive one. Sometimes they will change their opinion after tasting it, often not. *Sigh* So, as usual, when I was almost done preparing dinner, Elise came in to inspect the food. After looking in the pots & pans, she looked at me and said, "I don't know if you know it, but I don't eat animals." I did't know about this and told her so. "Yes, " she said, "I don't eat food from animals, its pitiful." Remembering what she'd had for lunch, I said, "Didn't you eat a hamburger for lunch? That comes from a cow." She thought for a moment and said, "Well, mainly I just don't eat chicken. " Ah ha. How convenient. Where do they come up with this stuff?
