The kids’ changing diets

Grapes used to be a staple of the kids’ diets. Now, they don’t shun them, per se, but they don’t eat them like popcorn liked they used to.

But there’s something even odder about their changing dietary requirements: Camille is peeling her grapes. Peeling them! Just who does she think she is?

I don’t usually worry about it, but it’s a mess trying to clean up grape peelings. Ick!

Yogurt was big, too. Now, not so much.

But they are eating raw veggies (carrots, broccoli, celery and sometimes snap peas) with “dip,” ususally dill or ranch.

And they’re trying to eat oatmeal.

All in all, they’re kids and they eat what kids eat.

But we gotta do something about this grape thing.

    Prose:

    Herb, I must remind you that under Article 72, Section 3, Subparagraph 14 of the Man Code, failure to warn any potential future sons-in-law of this grape-peeling behavior constitutes a Level 6 offense.
