Rachel loves granola. LOVES it. The loose granola that I sprinkle on my yogurt or fruit when I drive into work every morning. The granola bars I hand her every evening as we drive home (and which probably ruin her dinner).
The other day I was commenting on the gorgeous fall day and the beautiful red and gold leaves, and tried to turn it into a science lesson.
"See all the yellow and red leaves, Rachel?" I said. "That's because all the chlorophyll is gone from the leaves. Leaves are filled witih chlorophyll in the summer, that's why they're so green..."
"More granola," she said, totally unimpressed.
"Anyway, when the weather gets cold the cholorphyll leaves and the leaves turn yellow and red, which means they're dying," I said, "and..."
"More granola, Mommy!" she said. So I stopped there.
