ah innocence...

at dinner...

My daughter: I love chicken.
Me: (glad because getting her to eat dinner is never easy) Oh, that's great!
My daughter: Daddy, where does chicken come from?
Me: Uh..(thinking hard here)...from chickens.

Then I swear I could see the wheels turning in her head as she pictured chickens coming to our house to deliver chicken (a completely different thing from the animals themselves of course).

Beef and pork are so much easier in this respect.

When the questions get tougher and she asks where babies come from, are you going to say that babies come from babies?
