Cheese, glorious cheese

I’m starting to think that the days of eating anything I put in front of my daughter—vegetables—are over. In the not-to-distant past, she gobbled up lettuce, mushrooms, onions and other healthy greens. But lately, all she seems to want is plain cheese, bread with cheese and pasta covered in cheese. Oh and pizza. Notice a theme there?
Last night, I mixed vegetables into her brown rice and she picked up the celery, said “what’s this?” When I told her, she replied “sucio.” That’s Spanish for dirty. I guess she equated it with the dirty laundry I tell her not to play with.
I can pinpoint the downward spiral since it only began last week after she got ill. She had a 102º fever for two days and didn’t want to eat anything. In her 20 months of existence, that was a first. After she emerged hungry on day three, she’s been on that cheese diet I mentioned.
I’m going to try for chicken, veggies and rice tonight. I hope this phase lasts as long as that high fever.
