Potions

Yes, my eight-year-old watches TV and plays video games and I routinely feast on her brain for dinner. But she also likes to pretend she’s a wizard, and one afternoon last week she spent an hour putting together “potions” in the backyard. This specific one (those are unripe apricots on the right) was supposed to make her invisible. When I told her I could still see her she got really annoyed like she was tired of trying to explain the definition of FANTASY to me. And I was like, oh I KNOW WHAT FANTASY MEANS. His name starts with Ryan and ends with Gosling.
