Overheard a mother and daughter at the Farmer’s Market.
-- I hate fresh vegetables. I want to eat meat like Daddy does.
-- I’m raising you as a vegetarian, Cassie.
-- I hate it. All my friends go to McDonald’s, but I can’t.
-- You will grow up strong and healthy and they will all die off like flies. What you eat is important.
-- I want to eat meat.
-- How many times have I said, don’t eat anything with a face.
-- I could sneak some.
-- Don’t even joke about that.
-- Why are you doing this to me?
-- Because I love you.
-- But Daddy eats meat. Don’t you love him?
-- Sometimes...
-- I hate this family.
-- Come on, Cas, let’s find some good tasty veggies.
-- You’re joking, right? We might as well look for a unicorn.
-- Unicorns have faces.
-- I didn't mean to eat. I meant there are no such thing as tasty veg-
-- I know what you meant. But don't joke about unicorns. They have faces too.
-- They're not real, Mom.
-- Still.
