Back on Saturday I posted a picture of Chloe in Paris in the year 2000, making a face of astonishment in front of her meal, it having been delivered with a poached egg on top. I’ve always found the picture to be especially funny, given Chloe was used to meals with, shall we say, less elegant presentations. Today’s photo comes from the same meal but this time I’m featuring 3 year-old Ella’s involvement with what was delivered for the dessert. If I’m not mistaken, I think she’s searching for the chocolate.

Which reminds me of this great story from 1999. At a dinner at Aunt Brenda’s & Uncle Greg’s house, one in which Brenda had placed several decadent chocolates at each person’s plate, Ella quickly seized the moment and stuffed her mouth with said chocolates. Ever polite and with a mix of chocolate and saliva dripping from her chin, Ella asked her aunt, “More candy please.”

Today’s Prompt: What’s your favorite dessert?
