What is Pixels and Candy Dust?

An episode of the original Star Trek was titled "What are little girls made of?" When this came up on the screen, Audrey quickly answered, "Pixels and candy dust."


One of the best decisions I've ever made in my life was to write down the words that come out of the mouths of my niece, nephew, and stepdaughter, starting when they were about three or four years old. I'm obnoxiously proud of these kids, and think they are absolutely hysterical, and some of the things they say mystify me with their insight. Other people seem to love these stories too, so I know it can't be just me. Probably.

One of the things you should know, in order to fully appreciate some of their comments, is that Bryan and I are theatre professionals, and all of the kids are exposed to the arts, pretty much daily. As all kids should be. [End soapbox.]
