Dad be not proud

Ann made mashed potatoes a couple nights ago, mostly for the two of us but also because they're one of the few "adult" foods that Molly can eat too. Ann's mashed potatoes happen to be really, really good, with garlic and butter mixed into the recipe and... mmmm. Good stuff. Anyway, last night she put a small amount of it in one of Molly's baby bowls and tried feeding it to her. The munchkin ate some of it, but she's being a bit finicky about foods lately (we think she's teething), so after she'd turned her nose up at the rest of it, Ann started feeding her finger foods instead. At that point, I took the bowl off the high chair tray, brought it into the kitchen, and -- this is not my finest moment -- stood there eating mashed potatoes out of a baby bowl. Yes, I used an adult fork, but still- baby bowl. My daughter's leftovers.

Hey, don't judge me until you've tried Ann's mashed potatoes.

I do the same thing when the kids don't finish their grilled cheese.

I'd eat my husband's mashed potatoes out of a catfood bowl.

A CLEAN catfood bowl, mind you. But they're that good.
