‘That craving for carbs simply must be genetic’
Some years ago, The Child (who was an actual child at the time), started fussing peckishly in her highchair while I was on the phone with my mother. “Hold your horses, Honey,” I said. Mommy’s getting you your bread and water.”
The Child, getting close to the age when she would demand bread and water
“Bread and water!” my mom exclaimed, spluttering with over-the-phone laughter. “Are you punishing that child?” She was astonished when I explained that B&W was The Child’s snack of choice.
Not much has changed since she was in a highchair. Snackwise, anyway
