discovering chocolate

Special K was introduced to chocolate the other day. I had made brownies and we were eating them after supper when she kept looking at me from her high chair. I broke off a piece of my brownie (see Mom I CAN share) and put it on her tray.

She looked at it. Picked it up with her beautiful pincher grab. She put it in her mouth and furrowed her brow.

Then she suddenly snapped her head in my direction and raised her eyebrows as if to say,

WHAT WAS THAT?!!

and...

YOU'VE BEEN HOLDING OUT ON ME!!

and...

GIVE ME MORE!!

And so begins a likely life-long love of all things chocolate. Ah yes, enjoy my dear. It will make sad things less so, hard days more manageable, friendships closer and romance sweeter.

And yes, graham crackers can also serve the same purpose... though she is shaking her head no to me as I type this.
