My youngest is fairly persnickety when it comes to eating certain foods.  I haven’t had a lot of success in the fruit department.

In fact, if I dare to place a strawberry, blueberry, or raspberry on his tray, he will throw it overboard faster than you can say, “Don’t do that, fruit does a body good!”

So, he is quite emphatic that fruit should not be part of his diet.

On the other hand, he says he is always up for a yummy drink.

Good thing you gave me the sweet delicious drink mommy.  I was getting tired of all that fruit you tried to serve me.

Mommy, my cup is empty.  Can I have some more?

Mommy, don’t make me wait.  I said MORE.

What’s that?  You say this delicious drink is called  a smoothie and has nothing but fruit and yogurt in it?  Ha Ha.  Very funny mom.  Everyone knows I don’t do fruit.

Better luck next time, mom.  You have to get up pretty early to pull a fast one on me.
