More About Vladi

Not a week goes by that I don't tell Vladi, "Son, you're a strange little boy." Anything I eat or drink he has to sample. If he likes it, he's on it. Any other apple he'll take 1 bite, a Granny Smith he'll eat more than I get. In a salad he'll gobble lettuce, mushrooms, green olives (only one black), dill pickles, radishes, carrots (always a treat for him and Bella) bell peppers (I don't give em jalapenos), we all love maters.

I make a gallon of sun tea every day or 2. It's 6 regular bags of black + 4 green. Fresh from the back yard and still warm I add a 7 second squeeze (no more, no less) of honey and 1 sliced up and squeezed lemon. I usually have a glass full before work to get my caffeine fix started. About a month or so ago Vlad asked, "What you got there, Papa?" I gave him a taste and now I have to pour a taller glass so we both wet our whistles.

One of the few carbonated soft drinks I like is Dr. Pepper or store brand equivalent. My mom likes it too so I always try to keep some in the fridge for her. Guess what?  Vlad likes it too! Hey, I'll tell you like I tell him... the child ain't right.
