Mmm, mmmm, pickles!


Mark and I grabbed a burger at our local burger joint in Alameda on Sunday, with Aidan in tow. As usual - Aidan was much more interested in what we were eating than his baby food. Since he started eating solids we've had so much fun introducing new foods to him and occasionally letting him taste "adult" foods (Grandpa Bell started it all when we went to visit him in Florida). Aidan really isn't really a picky eater though he does favor fruits of any kind to his peas and squash. He won't go near any kind of meat that comes in a jar... and since I won't go near one after the 1st time I opened the jar, these don't count. They are so disgusting you can't even count them as food. Of the various "grown-up" foods we've introduced Aidan's favorite was watermelon. He could never get enough...today's experience surpassed that. Today it is all about the pickle!

Back to our lunch at Burgermeister - Mark had Aidan try the tomato and the onion that was supposed to go in his burger, while he liked both, he loved the pickle most. Once he got a taste, he was hooked! We didn't have a camera with us so we asked for a few pickles to go... pictures are worth a thousand words so here you go (by the way - for those curious, I never craved pickles):





Like father, like son:

Okay...the pickle pics are way classic. Gotta put it on the mantle.
