Lunch, The Progression — Part Two

Posted on: 10/27/05, 14:09:59
The problem with lunch, as far as Peanut is concerned, is that we don't always have something that he wants to share.

Oh, he'll try some new things. But usually it ends in disaster. Crackers sometimes entice him, particularly if we hold them for him. Vegetables are almost always ignored. Cottage cheese curds get flicked everywhere, never to be tried again. Tofu gets nibbled into little bits that get flicked everywhere, never to be tried again. Yogurt gets stuck to his beak, which he carefully wipes off on my sleeve and neck.
Peanut is King of the Sandwich!
So you can probably understand that my first reaction when Peanut climbs all over my egg sandwich is not to reminisce over the days when he would gingerly take a sesame seed off a slice of bread. After all, a bird on a sandwich is better than yogurt on my neck. Instead, my first reaction is to take pictures. Look! There's a bird! On my sandwich!

this sandwich looks good
Here are two more photos of Peanut enjoying the egg sandwich. All he really cares about is the bread. He made quite a few bread spitballs, looking for the seeds baked inside. Unfortunately, there weren't any.
any seeds in here?
