Juliana is a vegetarian. Or least she said last week that she wanted to be a vegetarian. So I went out of my way to try and teach her about making sure she gets enough protein and to tell her that going veggie doesn't just mean eating toast and cookies for every meal and then she hits me with:
"I know but I"m only going to be a vegetarian until next Thursday."
Because apparently she was TRIPLE DOG DARED by her best friend that she couldn't possibly make it one week without eating meat. And everyone KNOWS that if someone triple dog dares you than you HAVE to take the dare unless everyone will call you chicken.
Do I sense a talk about peer pressure coming on next?
