This morning I had the following deep philosophical thought with the girls, and my wife, in bed.
ME: Why do they call Butterflys, butterflys? I mean they don’t look like flys and I have never seen one eat butter. For that matter I have never seen one even around butter. Oh, And they don’t look like butter.
My Wife: ………………
ME: And do you think there are peanutflys and jellyflys? Maybe we just haven’t seen them. I wonder if they get together and mate they become Peanut Butter and Jelly flys?
My Wife: ……………..
ME: I was just wondering.

Isn’t that how Reese’s Butterflies were made?
Great philosophical thoughts. My inquisitive mind of course led me to search the net for the etymology of the word butterfly. One great site to visit is: http://www.aworldforbutterflies.com/etymology.htm Just another example of how little we know.
