kicking it city paper style

1. dear wegmans,
it had been so long, i thought it was over for good, but then you had to go and start selling beer, and not just beer, but Belgium beer. Okay i give up, maybe we can make the long distance relationship work, though your pizza sucks, work on that please.

2. dear little bear video,
please get lost, thank you

3. dear wallace and grommit,
though we have watched "the wrong trousers" 500 times this week, you still make us laugh. thank you

but a little story cause i usually just tink my daughter is crazy, but this was cute and an enjoyable exchange

today, this evening, as josh finished his workday and joined us down stairs,
just in time to hang with micah baby,
lucia and i headed out to trader joe's in search of banana chips
(charlie and lola eat bags of banana chips, and currently charlie and lola are our favorite)

and on the way home from this venture, with bag of banana chips in hand, decked out with pink from barette to crocks, with large pink whistle around neck, and pink tj baloon tied on arm (and bouncing around in the rearview mirror)
lucia informed me that she did not like the banana chips,
"You don't like them?" I ask
"I can't like them, they're yucky, can't like them, they're yucky, how about a banana? i would like a banana"
So i start the peel of a banana from the grocvery bag in the front seat and hand it back
(background: long story short, lucia has not had bananas in sometime due to her required current high fiber diet)

She munches o the banana happily pointing out the window to things, kicking her legs,
"Daddy likes bananas, Micah baby likes bananas too"
"Yes mommie likes bananas too, but do you know what mommie likes best? apples" (i know i know writing out how you talk to a 2 yr old is ridiculous)
"Oh, I like apples too"
"What do you like best?"
"Hmm, broccoli, m&m's, and yogurt, i love them"
(no lie broccoli was first!)
"oh yeah, everyone loves m&m's, but what about shrimp? I thought that was your favorite?"
"Shrimp in my tummy!" she yells and laughs

okay, not ammused? that's fine, but i enjoyed it,
oh, and um that pink tj's balloon,
somehow escaped as we got out of the car and floated away
heartbreaking
good thing we got strawberries the size of connenecuit
