After the success of last week’s watermelon radish, we decided to give another radish variety a try. Enter black radish. But we learned an important lesson this week: not all radishes are created equal. Some, like the watermelon radish, are pleasantly spicy. Others pack serious heat. Fortunately Sam didn’t suffer permanent damage, but from his reaction you’d have thought he’d scorched his tongue. I think I’ve tested about all the radishes my kids can handle. No need to try any more, we’ve been there, done that, time to move onto non-radish food.
ME: OK, you guys are going to be really excited about this next one…
SAM: Green beans?
ME: What do you think this is?
LAUREN: A radish?
ME: Yeah, how did you know it’s a radish?
LAUREN: Looks like it.
ME: Oh my gosh, I don’t think it looks anything like a radish. How did you know?
LAUREN: Well it had that same shape and the same thing on the top, so I just guessed it was a radish.
SAM: It’s a bum bum.
ME: Stop.
ME: What color is it going to look like on the inside?
SAM: Bum bumish.
ME: OK, thank you.
LAUREN: Uh, pinkish? Red? Green? Pink or green I guess.
SAM: Booty color.
ME: Oh, my gosh!
LAUREN: White?
ME: Yep. Hard to believe, right? Smell it.
LAUREN: That smells a little bit like cucumbers.
SAM: It smells like a bum bum.
ME: Want to smell it Emma? Do you want to feel it?
LAUREN: Feels smooth. It feels good.
ME: Can you give it to Sam? Who wants to try it first?
All at once: Me!
ME: You like it?
SAM: It’s a banana. (Tries it) Ah, ah, get it out, it’s spicy (continues to freak out)
ME: Spit it out, spit it out! Ew- on the napkin please.
ME: Is it spicier than the other one?
LAUREN: Yeah!
ME: I think I prefer the watermelon radish. You?
LAUREN: This tastes a little bit like the other one. Because they’re in the same family.
SAM: When I was a baby I didn’t know what those yellow things were. Bananas.
ME: So do we have black radish again?
In unison: No!








Note to self – avoid black radish.
Like da plague
Haha! That’s a pretty funny adventure there. (And thanks for the head’s up. I won’t be trying any black radishes anytime soon.) 😉
No don’t try it! Unless you maybe cook with it 🙂
LOVE everything Sam said. Hilarious!
Hahahahahaha – Bum Bummish and booty color LOL!

Excellent blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?
I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little
lost on everything. Would you advise starting with a free platform like WordPress or
go for a paid option? There are so many choices
out there that I’m totally overwhelmed .. Any tips? Bless you!
Thank you for every other excellent article. The place else may anybody get that type of
info in such an ideal approach of writing?
I have a presentation next week, and I’m on the search for such information.
What’s up mates, how is all, and what you would like to say on the topic of this post,
in my view its genuinely awesome in support of me.
