Behold the awesome power of Mexican food

(I know we haven't posted in a while. I wish I had a great excuse, like we've been taking fabulous vacations, or I've just been too busy planning exciting and enriching activities for my children every day, but the truth is, we've been plain lazy! I'll try to get back in the swing of things soon, but in the meantime, here's a little tidbit to keep you going.)

The Scene: Calvin's buddy Edward is visiting from Colorado for a few days, and our whole family is at the Red Iguana restaurant with Edward and his parents. Edward--a notoriously picky eater--is persuaded by his mom to try a bite of her entree.

EDWARD: Wow! My brain is trying to tell me to be picky, but the food is so good, I . . . I . . . CAN'T!
