Triumph

I don't know what, exactly, has gotten into Alex. I'm not sure I care, either...he's been on a 'taste-new-foods' jag the past couple of weeks. It's, well, it's wonderful.
That day when you sit down at the dining table, and all three plates hold the same foods? Priceless.
He breezed through Italian, expressed delight with his foray into Chinese, and really dug into the Swiss wonder of fondue.
So imagine our glee, absolute glee, when Alex decided he loved the Mediterranean offerings we gave him the other night.
He saw the falafel, asked what it was, and declared "I want to try that, I hope I like it'.
He did, too. He loved everything. I think he consumed half a 'brick' of feta.
I have no idea why he's been so keen to eat new foods, but so long as he is we're going to keep trotting out our favorites.
Wonder what spot on the globe we'll visit next...

That is impressive! I know many adults who won't try things like falafel. Congrats on raising a mini-foodie!
Thanks, Deb!
We do what we can. Thank god he's grown up watching not only us but my in-laws eat interesting foods. I mean, you think I do lots of stuff? You should see their weekly menus!
This week, we try Indian and a jambalaya (yes, a veg version for the two of us); keep those fingers crossed!
LOL about the comment re. three plates of the same food! And I'm 100% with him on the half brick of feta. I would do the same ;-)
Oh, Jeanne...something 'Alex-friendly', a dish for Matt and a veg version for me. It got a bit...trying.
