Well, that's a first...

Since turning three, Garin has become more and more picky about food. Weirdly picky, with lots of things he used to love now on the "no way" list. And for weird reasons: he won't eat fresh tomatoes (previously one of his favorite things) because they have seeds; he won't drink orange juice because it has pulp; he doesn't like it if one food picks up a color from another food; etc. But yesterday, we had a switch and for the first time, something that had previously been a no food became a yes food! Garin has never liked eggs, from the very beginning of eating he would refuse them in all forms. Not allergic because he would happily eat things with eggs in them without problem, but eggs alone were never accepted. But last night he agreed to try "cheesy eggs" (scrambled eggs with cheese) and lo-and-behold, he loved them! Amazing. Supports my thinking that he will return to those former favorite foods once the picky stage is over.
