qotd so far

Josiah walked up to me, holding a gumball from his halloween stash. "Hey, Lyssie, this sounds like a flavor you'd like: Tea-berry."
I looked up from homework, wondering what the heck "tea-berry" is supposed to be. "Ooo?"
He smiled a little. "You can't have it. We can share the outside, but not the inside, 'cause that would be weird."
"Okay?" I said, raising one eyebrow as he walked away.
He came back a few minutes later. "It tastes more like cherry than tea-berry," he observed, offering it to me as I continued to wonder what the heck "tea-berry" is supposed to taste like. I licked the weird gumball for a minute, trying to get enough of whatever flavor it was to form an opinion.
"Huh." I handed it back to him and looked back to my homework as he walked away again.
A few minutes later he came back with a cup of water and chewing the gum. "Hey, Lyssie! If you drink water while you chew it, it tastes just like tea!"

o.O
Huuuuhhh??????
(As I write this, he is watching me type.)
My poor little brother. Clearly, I have not educated him enough about tea. *I just got my hand swatted for that* Speaking of tea, I just got a recipe online for green tea ice cream. The royal tea company had it on their blog. If you're interested, let me know, and I'll post it.

Oh, he just brought me the wrapper for the gum. It says:

Clark
Teaberry
Fruit
Gum Ball

How odd.....
