I’ve watched some bad movies lately. Break me out of the slump. Which should I watch next? Here’s a poll:
The results said I should watch Tick Tick… Boom! first. Since I never saw it on Broadway, I thought it made sense to watch Rent The Musical The Movie first. Boy, was that a mistake.
Wait. I was at an event where this guy got an award. I don’t know his character’s name yet. Not Garfield. Garfield’s roommate.
I have something to share. Tomorrow. I’m so excited about it that I’m vibrating. Whole thing was like a dream. Watch this space.
Me all day today:
I believe that God can dream a bigger dream for you than you can dream for yourself. I know that’s true because never in my wildest dreams did I see myself having brunch and conversation with @colmandomingo and @AudraEqualityMc!! They both have such generous spirits.
And it’s gone. I’d be highly suspicious of patronizing @Chefshivambu. Gotta wonder what his food tastes like if he’s stealing other peoples dishes for clout.
I think there’s a way to let kids have choices when it comes to eating, & it’s often wrapped in privilege. Can one afford to take your kid shopping and let them pick different veggies to try? Does one have the time to find/cook a recipe using it instead of the faster ol’ standby?
We need to recognize that sometimes we heard “Eat what I make or don’t eat!” because that’s the only thing there was. Or that’s the only thing our caregiver had time to make. Sometimes it came from a place of scarcity.
If that’s not OUR story now, we can/should change that.
*If* you have the resources to expand your child’s palate at a young age, it’s helpful. It also gives your kid some agency. “Which veggie/protein should we have tonight?” Is an easy way to get them involved AND increase the chance of them finishing because they picked it.
