One day my husband took the kids to a park and a nearby church was having some fishing event where they introduced people, especially kids I think, to fishing. They had rods set up and would put the thingies on the hook and help you throw the thingies out.
You can tell I have no idea how to do this, neither does my husband.
But my daughter LOVED it. This happened this summer and she still talks about it. Just today, she said she wants to have her fishing rod "forever". Son asks her "even when you die?" And she goes "yeah!"
I don't want to restrict my daughter's hobbies based on our own. Are there places we can go that will teach her to fish? Like I know we don't have to know soccer -- we could bring her to soccer camp and they'd teach her. Is there the same for fishing? Where do I look? That church thing was a one-off to drum up membership ("fishing for men")
Also complicating this is she is only 2 years old. She just also loves fishing
Edit: omg I love all the support for my daughter's interest! This is a very "we don't get it but you do you" from my husband and me so it's really exciting to see the encouragement
What did you feed that thing? I'd be afraid it would sit up on that board and slap me a few times.
That's like 3 parsnips in one right there. How do you usually cook/eat your parsnips? Sometimes I like to put one in with potatoes that I'm cooking down for mash, and it gives the mash a slightly sweet flavor.
That sounds really wonderful ❤️ I use them in a variation of dishes. I also use them as a stand-in for celeriac. This time I grated some of it finely to use in a lasagna.
What a specimen! For a moment I thought I was seeing a TIM 😂
Noooo D: my poor parsnip 😢
He’s a spectacular parsnip! Truly exquisite! Not his fault unwashed moids can resemble characterful root vegetables! Be proud of him!
I am pretty sure JKR took inspiration from something like this to write about the mandrakes
