When Grandma Gives You Lemons...

There's never a dull moment going out to dinner with Violet. Even though she's only 6-1/2 months old, she sits in a high chair and grabs for everything on the table. No matter how many of her toys you give her, she always wants something she can't have - napkins, forks, straws, menus. She'll usually sit through dinner and only gets fussy towards the end of the meal. Melissa, Violet and I went to dinner at Famous Dave's. While waiting for Jamie's take out order, I gave Violet the lemon from my water.

It took her awhile to hold it because it was very cold. But you could immediately tell when the sourness of the lemon hit her tongue. The good thing about lemon is it isn't sticky like the pureed carrots Violet had for her dinner. No wonder she wanted the lemon.
