Today I took C to the butcher shop. We were supposed to buy fish. That guy also had some really nice looking pigeons. C got very excited and wanted to buy the 'birdie'. I was not even sure, why that guy has those pigeons and asked him, if those were for sale and for human consumption. He said yes. Now that I cleared it up, I wanted to know if C knew the pigeons are food. I asked her and to my surprise, she wanted to cook and eat them! I told her that if she ate one birdie, the other birdies will come and trouble her at night and convinced her not to buy it.
On our way back, C started saying that she would still like to buy, cook and eat one. And she added further: if they come and ask me at night, I will tell them that my dad made me eat it!
