Don't play with your food

Why not? I have been pretty impressed with the emergence of Duke's imagination, and it has been most evident at meal times so far.

We had some spaghetti last week. (Apparently everything tastes better with "red sauce" on it). Well, you and I would call it spaghetti. But did you know that Duke was eating snakes? Ssssss.

The next night, we were having some green beans, pumpkin seeds and other assorted items. He started making a structure out of the green beans, then sticking the seeds in all over. "Nest, nest." Duke, are you building a nest? "Chickens, hens. Roosters."

Too bad they don't have anywhere to live now, he ate the nest. Come to think of it, I think we were having chicken that night too. Oh, well.
