oscar: mommy why is the cookie monster blue?
me (thinking really hard to come up with a good answer... but failing miserably!) : mmmmm ~ you know what, i'm not sure why...don't you think he should be blue then?
oscar: no way...
me: why not?? what color do you think he should be?
oscar: well he eats cookies... so he should be brown
me: oh... so you think people should be the colors that they eat?
oscar: yes
me: well what color are you then?
oscar: yellow because i like pizza... & you should be green because you like salad.
me: mmmmm... would i stay green?
oscar: no after you've eaten for a while you'd go back... i hope. i like that because i like seeing all sorts of different colored people
me: phewy ~ i don't fancy staying green
oscar: but then if you eat carrots you'd turn orange
me: now this would come in handy when i ask who ate all the cookies!! oooo... but not so handy if it was me!
'me want cookie!', 'me eat cookie!'
