Radishes and rats...

Last night felt like a "Language Arts" theme night which leads me to ask...
Do you call English class "English" or "Language Arts?" Our Elementary/Jr. High school has always called it "Language Arts." At High School, however, when Hunter talks about "Language Arts" class he gets funny looks and people ask him what he's talking about.

The twigs (Hunter...) were full of awesome quotes and queries like...

"I have good reason to believe that somewhere on my planet there is an old rat. You can judge this old rat. From time to time you will condemn him to death. But you will pardon him on occasion; for he must be treated thriftily. He is the only one we have." -The Little Prince

Hunter liked the part about being thrifty with the rat. Me too.   :) 




"Do not go. I will make you a minister!" 
"Minister of what?"
"Minister of justice!"
"But there is nobody here to judge!"...
"Then you shall judge yourself, that is the most difficult thing of all. It is much more difficult to judge oneself than to judge others. If you succeed in judging yourself rightly, then you are indeed a man of true wisdom." -The Little Prince

Then he asked...
What's the difference between a radish, a rutabaga, and a turnip?

Is a radish something that's kinda cool, but not quite rad? You know, it's rad...ish?  ha ha ha

We have definitely neglected the twigs palate when it comes to experiencing a multitude of root vegetables. Have to remedy that. 
Recipes anyone???
