Foodplay

Suzanne here, with Lillia's new suggestions for fun things to do with food:

1) Lillia recommends this one for beginners. You simply hold the food object out over the edge of the tray and let go. It should land on the floor with a satisfying splat.

2) A more advanced technique. Stuff your mouth with food until your cheeks bulge. Masticate well. Then blurp the whole slimy bolus out onto your bib. (Okay, blurp isn't a real word, but it should be.)

3) This is a technique that works especially well for soft foods such as oatmeal, yogurt, or pureed anything. Refrain from swallowing until you have a good mouthful, then expell forcefully with a loud farty noise. This will spatter the tray, Mommy, and anything else within a two-foot radius.

4) Lillia's current favorite. Chew any food well. Then stick your fingers way into your mouth and pull it out again and
a) mash onto the tray, or
b) smear in your hair.

5) Oh yeah, food can also be swallowed. This is strictly for losers.

P.S. Tom wasn't kidding-- I really did catch Lillia gnawing on the kitchen cabinets. You can still see the little teeth marks.
