Food Art

Brad takes pride in his food art. It used to be a way to get the boys to eat (as opposed to my method - "Just eat it!").

It's been awhile since he's created a culinary masterpiece, and this one was created for a different reason. Connor and Brad put it together just to see if they could get Dylan, our increasingly moody tweenager, to crack a smile.

It worked, but just barely.

Even though I kind of miss those days when Brad would arrange the Cheerios into shapes on the table (a van and trailer! a Transformer! a drum set!), it's nice that both boys eat without coaxing most of the time, and we've moved on to the next phase. A pound of hamburger just doesn't go that far anymore.

This is supremely cool. Makes me want to eat it. I like the carrot bicycle best...
