Born Sickly

I was born sickly in a certain way
I had to eat my "veggies" every day
If I did not
My brain would rot
At least that's what my mom would always say!

Oh yeah, the starving kids in China or something. Didn't really make em taste any better. Oddly I like them all now, except rhubarb and canned peas. Frozen are good though. Thank you for commenting my friend!!!......Pat

When I was a kid I used to think if I swallowed a watermelon seed I would grow a watermelon in my belly! The things parents tell their kids!
