Lesson learned

My friend just posted a very affirming (to me) story about how Americans are too quick to throw away food that's reached the "best by" date, resulting in tons of wasted food every year.

And that reminded me of a story. We ate at Cancun Grill the other night with my dad. At one point I looked up, and saw that Annie looked like she was about to cry. I asked her what was wrong, and she said, "the milk smells like...bugs." I smelled it and Kevin (brave man that he is) tasted it, and we confirmed that it was sour. Annie had already taken a good long drink of it.

So the moral of the story is, at restaurants, always give your kids' milk a quick sniff before they drink it. And, maybe bugs smell like sour milk?
