dear griffin:

whats the dealeo? how come you don't eat your fruits and veggies?
we put salad in front of you and you have a fit.
we put beans in front of you...and you'd think we were torturing you.
we put melon in front of you and you have to leave the table because your so appauled by the sight of it.
we put an apple in front of you and you whip the slice across the room while crying uncontrollably.

see - it wasn't so long ago that we could get you to eat anything! it's true! if you don't believe me...just look!

here you are happily eating apples...and i didn't even have to dip them in a gallon of caramel!!


and tomatoes and corn: (and i probably DID see them later..)


wait...what is that i see there? why, it's canteloupe! see - melons are tasty.


gasp! a PEA? there was a time, little man...where you hogged these down.


carrots? now i really have seen it all.


so, whats it going to take? am i gonna have to jessica seinfeld your ass and sneak it into everything from brownies to meatloaf (which i'm fairly certain you wouldn't eat anyway)?

how bout you save mommy some precious time pureeing all this crap and just eat em, mmmk?

thanks for your help in this matter.
now, i'm off to eat a dove chocolate. (and i just can't seem to understand why he wants to eat like shit...i wonder where he gets it from?)

love, mom
