I thought I had a while before this lovely stage...
Lately Eliza has been asking "why?" a lot. And not just in the appropriate toddler-learning-to-talk way either. Here's an example: "Eliza, no no. You can't put more salt on your fruit salad." "Why?" she replies! And then the hard part is actually trying to come up with a valid reason that can be deciphered by a 19 month old. Yeah, the kid is 19 months.
When she continues to ask why for minutes at a time this is what Sawyer says, "Um, Eliza, you can't just ask 'why'. Humans don't just say 'why'. You have to say other things...not just ask 'why'". How does Eliza respond to this? "Why?"
Tonight for dinner Sawyer, Eliza and I had Arthur mac and cheese, corn on the cob and blueberries. Summer is here. Break open the trash bread, heirloom tomatoes and Duke's mayonaise. Summer is here. 4 more days of work for me. Summer is here.

Trash bread??
Yea summer! Can't believe Eliza already asks "why?"! We've not been treated to that question yet. We get "whas Mommy/Daddy doin'?" a lot.
Yeah, what's trash bread? And how is it that you actually make it sound good? Better yet....why? :-) Is it like monkey bread? Hmmmm, that sounds good, I'll have that!
trash bread=wonder bread. you know, the kind that we were denied as children and the kind that makes the best bread balls.

Bread balls...yummy.
is trash bread the chewy white loaf bread in the perfect square that sticks every so slightly to the roof of your mouth when the sandwich is appropraitely stuffed? it's a little piece of heaven...
