The Loch Ness Misunderstanding

Last week we took Owen (and Pete but he wasn't really paying attention) to Loch Ness. As we drove along the lakeside Em was trying to explain about the lake and the monster. It went something like this:

Em: It's a deep and spooky lake and some people think there's a monster in it.

[Owen appears to ponder this and, a few minutes later...]

Owen: Mum, how did they get the spooky in?

[Em tries to explain what spooky means. She appears to manage to explain this. But, a few minutes later...]

Owen: What flavour spooky?

Me/Em:  Huh?

Owen: I'm guessing lime flavour.

Em: Owen, what do you think 'spooky' means?

Owen: It's everything in the world all mashed up and mixed with orange juice.

Me: Owen, that's a smoothie.

Owen: No, not with trees in it.
