Since last week’s bean sprouts were such a big hit, I thought we’d try another sprout-related veggie. Enter radish and clover alfalfa sprouts. Aside from the disagreement about whether we were dealing with Brussels sprouts or alfalfa sprouts, I’d say that we had a productive conversation. And we even got a long-term taker, Emma loved them.
ME: What are these?
LAUREN: Brussels sprouts.
ME: Actually they’re not.
LAUREN: Actually they are.
ME: Actually they’re not.
LAUREN: Uh, they are.
EMMA: Can I get a cool one?
ME: These are alfalfa sprouts.
LAUREN: Yeah, they’re Brussels sprouts.
ME: Um actually they’re not.
LAUREN: Oh yeah they are.
ME: They’re the little sprouts that make radishes and clovers. What do they look like and feel like and all of that?
EMMA: Mmmmm I love them.
ME: You love that?
SAM: Brussels sprouts.
LAUREN: That’s actually spicy.
ME: They taste like Brussels sprouts? What do they look like in your hand?
SAM: Brussels sprouts.
