food for thought

I have made progress with food negotiations: she'll eat what I feed her as long as I eat what she's feeding me. Which makes complete sense, in fact: if I'm already feeding her, then why would she need to be feeding herself as well?

We're back in the land of food complexities.
Where the bread is low-carb and the ice-cream low-fat, the chocolate syrup is no-fat & no-sugar, the eggs are fake egg-whites in a carboard box, the butter a cancer-causing no-stick spray, where (low-fat) peanut butter and (low sugar) jelly is a popular choice for lunch for adults, and the soda plentiful but diet and caffeine-free.
And the mediterranean diet hailed as most healthy.

I loved this comment of yours and the phrase "food complexities." I definitely plan on quoting you on this at a future date.

Just caught up with all your posts. I'm so sorry about the horrific travel experience you just had. I know you aren't looking forward to flying back, but the three of you being together without anyone else telling you how you should realllly be doing things should lend supersonic speed to your journey. :)
