Broccoli and egglets

We were eating dinner tonight and we had:

-rolls

-soup

-veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, carrots)

-the kids had eggs

Maria: "Mama, can I have an egglet?"

Daddy: "A what???"

Maria: "An egglet, dad. Ya know...like the kind of eggs where it's flat and round. An egglet."

Mama: "Danny.....she wants an omelet."

Daddy: "Oh, sure. You need to eat your vegetables."

Maria: "But I don't like the white things (cauliflower)."

Mama: "Maria, it doesn't really taste like anything and it's healthy for you. It's kinda like white broccoli."

Maria: "Well mom I don't like broccoli. It's crinkly. Ya know...the green things. Like scrumply. And, well, kinda crumplish."

How can I argue with that? I mean, would you want to eat a crumplish, scrumply broccoli? I didn't think so.
