Abbiechokes

So at dinner the other night Mommy is eating an artichoke (artichokes in the grocery store is a sure sign that spring is here.) Abbie points and whines. So Mommy gives her an artichoke leaf. And she likes it. Unbelievable. She even managed to adjust the leaf until she got the bottom part in her mouth and scraped the meat off with her six little teeth. She ate about 4 leaves. Mommy felt obligated to share some of the heart with Abbie too. She also loved that.

Interestingly, Mommy doesn't mind being awakened at 2AM or changing diapers, but is surprisingly resentful at having to share her artichoke heart.
