When I was little I used to believe that if I ate grapes with the pips in that a grape tree would grow out of my ears. Imagine my horror when one day I swallowed one by accident! I spent the whole night worrying that by the time I woke up I would have the branches sticking out of my ears and that I would have to go to school like that!
