Another milestone of sorts

Last week while picking Sylvie up from daycare, Melissa was surprised to learn from the class biography collage that Sylvie has apparently designated hamburgers as her very favorite food.  This was particularly unexpected since, to our knowledge, Sylvie had never actually agreed to try a bite of hamburger.

So yesterday we asked her, "do you want to go get a hamburger for lunch?" To which she responded with an enthusiastic, "yes! they my favorite!"  Rather than subject her to the real deal at the local brew pub, we decided Burger King - with the attendant possibility of a playground bribe - might work best.

And so it is that Sylvie consumed her first hamburger - a cheeseburger, really - this weekend.

I have to admit, Syl's newfound fondness for cow wasn't nearly so surprising as the discovery that veggie burgers are available at Burger King.  Melissa was pleased.  I was a little appalled.
