"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. " -Helen Keller

Was it the mushrooms speaking?

Earlier this afternoon, Jennifer and I ran to the store to pick up a few things and Gabe decided to tag along. He turned on the cute and talked us into getting him a soda. As we were leaving the store, this conversation took place...

Gabe: Why do all sodas taste the same?
Me & Jennifer: They don't all taste the same.
Gabe: Hmmmm, yeah, this root beer tastes like mushrooms.
Me: laughing my ass off
Me: It doesn't taste like mushrooms.
Gabe: Yeah, it does. They put mushrooms in it.
Jennifer & Me: still laughing
Me: You need to tell daddy this when we get home.
Gabe: Nooooooooooo...
Me: Ok, I'll tell daddy.
Gabe:...Noooooooo, it's a secret.
Me: Why's it a secret?
Gabe: It just is. But, they put mushrooms in it.

What makes it all funnier is that Gabe hates mushrooms...and the fact that the whole time he's saying this I keep wondering what kind of psychedelic mushrooms he was drinking.

What kind of weird shit have your kids or anyone in your life said lately?

It's so funny how kids put things together sometimes.

P.S. I hope I am still able to drink root beer now!
Hmmmm... mushrooms, eh? I always taste licorice when I drink root beer.

Gabe is hysterical!
