(A few days later)
me: "Can you say 'If you ask me a silly question, I'll give you a silly answer?'"
Corwin: "Yogurt with applesauce and porcupine."
"You always say that now. What other silly answers can you come up with?"
"Yogurt with applesauce and a car in it."
"What if you don't have any yogurt and applesauce?"
"Then just a car, then you eat it."
"What if you don't have any yogurt, applesauce, _or_ a car?"
"Then you eat the bowl. That will give you a silly answer."
I think I've been told.

Re: thinking some more

(And I should have asked him what if he didn't have a bowl just to see where he'd go, but that last answer was just so awesome that it was all we could do to write it down before we lost it.)
