Kelleen, Kelleen. I have been going through old FMLs I missed while on vacation when I read about you softening up the raisins for your little ones and I sure had a good laugh. My little girl just _loves_ corn chips and peanuts - but only _after_ I've chewed them up for her! I was eating peanuts one day when I picked her up - she just went "crazy". She shoved her head in my mouth and started "cleaning up". I was paralyzed with hysterical laughter, trying to keep from choaking, and afraid I'd accidentally shut my mouth and hurt her. My son came running to see what was going on. His only comment was "That's disgusting!" - which made me laugh all the harder. I discovered later that corn chips have the same effect on her - and me. :-) What's odd is that she's not interested in peanuts (I wouldn't feed them to her anyway) or corn chips when they're whole (she does like peanut butter). I'm a little wary when I pick her up anymore and I certainly make sure my mouth is empty. They are eternal surprises and delights aren't they? Lin Jillian, Hobbes, and Teddy [Posted in FML issue 1461]
