My son, My mentor
March 10th, 2007 | by Paolo |As my wife and I were kibitzing over how garam masala got cooked into the taco meat instead of cumin, my son, from the kitchen table where he was busily devouring a bowl of cottage cheese, said:
“Dad, you don’t need to bother Mommy. That’s my role.”
Thank goodness someone’s got the job covered.

Ah, he’s coming along nicely. Soon you’ll be able to let him deal with telemarketers!

Three-year-olds are far more interesting than infants. Thank god.

Was he really ‘devouring’ the cottage cheese? Or was he just eating it?

Well, I measured the spoon-scoop volume and bowl-to-mouth transfer velocity with my devour-o-meter, and, to be honest, it was off the scale.
I didn’t want to brag before, but since you push the issue, the devour-o-meter actually read: “Scarf-o-Rama!”
