Day 5: He don't know. He never tried!-- Happy

 He don't know. He never tried!-- Happy, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

This short quote comes to us when Snow White questions Dopey, the youngest of the seven Dwarfs, and his ability to speak happy one of the older dwarfs who lives up to his name speaks up for him

Has anyone ever said this about you or have you ever said it about someone else? Another saying comes to my mind when I think of this quote is "You never know what you can do until you try". I do wonder what Dopey's voice would have been had he actually tried to speak and how that would fit into his personality.

Has there ever been anything you may have wanted to try but haven't? Is it a new type of food, a new music genre, or maybe a a new line of work? Trying something new is always going to be scary because you don't know whether or not you're going to like it or what the outcome will be. Yet if you don't try something you'll never know if you actually truly like it. Sometimes you might not like it at first but when you try it multiple times you may find you actually like it more than you first thought. This typically happens when food is involved.

For example, kids don't have an adventurous palette when it comes to eating. From the start, parents have to slowly introduce new foods to them to get them to eat. They say it typically takes between 10 to 20 tries to get someone to eat a food, so long as they're not allergic to it. Sometimes adults even have to try things multiple times to like a certain dish. Yet sometimes no matter how many times you try it you just don't like it and that's okay. Some people like their meals a certain texture, some like certain flavors. Either way, it makes it hard to step outside of a box to be more adventurous but you never know what you may end up liking until you try it. 

So until next time don't be like Dopey and never try something and as always Keep Cooking with Character!
