Hypopisis

5-year-old Cole: "I have a hypopisis".
Mom: "What's that?"
Cole: "An idea you can test"
Mom: "Ohhh, a hypothesis!" (Oh, thank you Dinosaur Train Show)
Cole: "Yes, I have a hyPOPisis that you take marshmallows & squish chocolate chips in da middle, den cook it. I tink it will taste guuuuud...".
Mom: How would you cook it?"
Cole: "Microwave."

With a convo like that, how can I not let her test it out? When I asked her where she got this idea, she said she could smell the roasting of marshmallows outside (as there's still ample snow outside, I have no idea where she smelled something roasting on a fire), that reminded her of roasting marshmallows at the cottage.

So we did get marshmallows & poke chocolate chips in the centre, then microwaved them for a few seconds. To her delight, the marshmallows puffed out like clouds as they spun in the microwave.

Conclusion of Cole's hypopisis: "YUMMM!!!".
Cole: "Did you like my hyPOPisis Mummy? It's good huh?"
