I am a big drag about breakfast cereal. I limit Hannah's choices to about 4 different products, and specifically outlaw anything chocolate and anything with any Flintstone on the box. Perhaps sensing my nutritional hypocrisy, Cheerios has started making about 20 different flavors, all pretty much weird, figuring I'm dumb enough to buy anything with their logo on the box.
Turns out they weren't wrong. A while back we tried the fruity kind. Blech. Hannah once had some Fruit Loops on vacation, and wanted to get them at the store. I compromised with the Fruity Cheerios, but she wouldn't eat them. I didn't blame her. This week she wanted to try them again, so I bought her just a single-serving cup of actual Fruit Loops, knowing she wouldn't eat the other stuff.
So this morning, I poured half of those gross little circles in a bowl and gave it to her for breakfast. She wasn't two bites in before she gave me the puppy face and said that this cereal was kinda weird, could she please have regular Cheerios.
Hm. Really? Who would have imagined. Could you just take my word for it next time?
Not likely.
