Vegetarian Brownies

Nine-year-old Mary Jae and I were baking brownies today for her big sister’s dance team.  As she was cracking eggs into the brownie mix, she turned and said, “Does Jerremy (big brother) eat brownies now?”  I told her, “Vegetarians eat brownies.”   “Oh,” she said with a puzzled look on her face.  I asked her why she thought vegetarians wouldn’t eat brownies.  “Brownies have chicken in them,” was her reply.  “WHAT?”  “Chickens come from eggs,” she told me. 

Who can argue with that logic?
