Theo has a somewhat odd palate for a kid. He loves french fries and Oreos, like pretty much any kid, but he also will pitch a fit if you don't save him any asparagus. This conversation pretty much sums it up:
Theo: Mom, can I have some Brussels sprouts?
Me: Yes, after you eat your salmon. I'll save you some.
Theo (picking at his salmon): How much of this do I have to eat before I can have some Brussels sprouts?
Me: All of it--I didn't give you much.
Theo: But I don't really like salmon. I love Brussels sprouts. Can you just make me some Brussels sprouts instead, Mom?
I love that he's treating Brussels sprouts almost as a dessert--how much salmon do I have to eat before I can get my Brussels sprouts? :-)
