When I was much younger, we used to have white daisies in our yard. Some of these daisies had magenta spots on them. My mom said that these spots were created when fairies peed on the daisies. My sister and I believed her for years! I'm still not sure where those spots came from, but I will never forget the tales of the "pink fairy pee".
