Spice of life!

Posted on March 13, 2013 by Leah Kelley, Ed.D.

Tonight H was quizzing me about my love of hot food, as I was adding chile sauce and cayenne and chopped raw jalapenos to my dinner. Ya… I like spicy…

He was thinking and imagining and explaining that he was going to invent the perfect hot sauce for me. Apparently, it will involve, among other things, Habanero peppers and the use of the blender.

He is thoughtful like that.

And, get this, it will be named ‘Twitching Corpse’…

Brilliant!!

I love this kid and so appreciate his thinking and his sense of humour!

I offered to design the label!!

I can’t help but wonder, though…  maybe he needs to become good friends with a patent attorney.

      Thanks Ariane… I thought it was funny too, and almost sprayed milk at Craig across the kitchen table. I love these delightful lighthearted moments that reflect the beauty of thought and process. We are all fueled by this…
