My LIttle Tomato


Charlotte doesn't have many food friends. She eats, if grudgingly. Jarred food pretty much repulses her, except when she's really hungry. What she loves most: pasta with pesto, pan seared broccoli and her number one fave....tomatoes. We were lucky to produce a massive crop this summer, in our little backyard garden, which kept her all smiles and bibs full of oozy seeds. Yesterday she found a big, clearly lost, tomato on the kitchen floor, and before I noticed, she'd eaten half of it, biting into it as if it were an apple. I relocated her, and the tomato, to her highchair to finish the snack. In our house only the dog eats off the floor. We still have some manners.
