overheard 1:
random five-year-old boy beside me at IHOP: i'm going to eat sausage and pancakes for breakfast. do you like that?
me: well, i love pancakes, but i don't really care for sausage.
random five-year-old boy (with a touch of disdain in his voice): oh. so you're a vegetarian?
overheard 2:
jack (singing to the tune of "all for the glory of you"): every moment, all i say and do, let this life i live be all for the glory of steak!!
somewhere out there, a certain 6' 4" carnivore is loving the new version of that song (you know who you are, missile!)
overheard 3:
abby: mommy, look at how much of this book i've read.
me: that's awesome, abby!!! it's wonderful that you love to read so much.
abby: why, mommy?
me: well, when you read, it helps your brain to be healthier and stronger.
abby: oh, so reading is kind of like eating salmon?!?
