Apples better than coffee

Another example of ordinary, everyday conversations at our house reveals how truth happens... and apples and coffee go head to head.

This is a normal conversation around my house…

At lunch today, I reada tweet outloud to Carolyn that said:

“Did you know an apple wakes you up more than coffee? It’s because you’re suddenly forced to remember how terrible fruit is.”

She responded with, “It’s true.”

“What’s true?” I asked.

“The thing about the apple…” she said distractedly. She was watchingSay Yes to the Dressat the time, so I wasn’t sure she’d actually heard me.

“How do you know it’s true?” I said, incredulous.

“Because I’ve heard that before,” she replied emphatically.

“Wait a minute,” I said. “You’veheardit before, so that makes it true?!” I pursued. I walked over and stood between her and the TV to make sure she was actually talking to me.

“Yes,” she said. She glared and waved her hand imperially at me. The instructions were clear. Move from in front of the TV or get an apple where it will for sure wake me up.

I walked away. But I don’t believe it.
