elliot, as a general rule, won't eat fresh fruit. who doesn't like fresh fruit? being somewhat in continual disbelief, i am always contriving new ways to trick him into putting just one piece in his mouth because i am convinced that if he eats one piece he will like it (i should not here that even if i am successful once, inevitably he forgets that he ever liked fruit and we start all over again).
a couple of weeks ago i had the bright idea of giving him toothpicks that he could use to stab watermelon. success! sort of. he did ea some watermelon, so i guess that is success. however, his methods were a bit peculiar:
1. pick up watermelon with your fingers.
2. insert toothpick into watermelon.
3. show-off inserted toothpick
4. possibly eat the watermelon or put it back in your bowl for future stabbing. in either case, ham it up for camera.
