Tofu Teasing

We had stir fry tofu with veggies tonight for dinner, and Avrielle really liked it. She said of course, it tastes"just like chicken" Next, she asked David and me, "I know what a chicken is, but what's a tofu?'' Well, we jumped all over that comment. What?...You've never heard what a tofu is? You're in sixth grade and you don't know where tofu comes from? We then proceeded taking turns telling her that tofu comes from a country in Europe called"Fu", and it is called tofu because they only have one toe on each foot. On and on we went, each statement getting more and more ridiculous then the one before. We had her going for a while. I love having gullible kids. It is so much fun. Sometime, I'll have to tell you the story about the dirty underwear factory we drove past in Ventura...
