Donkey’s milk
October 1, 2008 – 9:12 amIt’s funny to think that just days ago I was all worried about CJ’s school.
Based on the conversation we had this morning, it’s clear that he’s learning a myriad of useful things.
CJ: Mom? Did cheese used to be an animal?
Me: No, CJ. Cheese comes from milk.
CJ: Hmm. Is milk an animal?
Me: No, you know where milk comes from…
CJ: Oh, right. From cows. (he pauses) and DONKEYS.
Me: Umm, donkeys? Really? Well, I guess they probably do make milk.
(long pause)
Me: But we don’t usually drink milk from donkeys.
CJ: Right. People in AMERICA do, though.
Me: Well, we live in America. Remember?
CJ: Oh. Right.

Can you milk a donkey? Makes me think of Meet the Parents and the milking of the cat. “Oh you can mild anything that has nipples.”
