Interesting but it might not be the best idea…

I think my sister may have done just that, the slob.

I do believe you misunderstood the meaning of her statement…

Kids can be so completely literal since they have not yet mastered sarcasm and/or metaphor.

“they keep me in the dark and feed me….”

‘Mush’rooms are on the back of a dog sled.

I think your mom was commenting more on the state of your room; however, good luck growing mushrooms, Kate.

Well, it will make for an interesting comparison with the kale seeds. My bet is on the kale.

I hope that was a joke.

I like Kate’s Mom!

Former neighbors of mine decided to grow edible mushrooms. It was great. They lost all control of the basement garden and we got a lot of free mushrooms.

That would be magic and magic mushrooms are not a good idea. :)

My daughter’s room could give Kate a run for her money.

That sounds more like commentary than encouragement.

I don’t believe that was permission Kate but rather an observation on the part of your mom. Just something to ponder.

Did Kate get some mushroom spawn?

I think Kate may be mistaking potential for permission.

First, Kate, you’ll have to kick out whatever’s already growing under there!
