Today we went to get the vegetables to plant in the garden. Ethan kept asking if we could get an eggplant. I said no...and he continued to beg and plead with me. I then told him he probably wouldn't like it and he replied "that is not true, I love scrambled eggs!" After I quit laughing I was able to explain to him that eggplant is a purple vegetable and that eggs come from chickens...have I failed so horribly as a mother that my 8 year old actually thought eggs grew on a plant??!!
vegetable noun, an edible plant grown for food

I should know better than to read your blog when it's late and I'm already giddy and tired...my stomach hurts. Must stop laughing.
