while in virginia for our christmas vacation, we went out to dinner with the family to an italian retaurant. part of the appetizer we ordered included fried calamari. upon the plate being brought to the table, antonio begged for some of the calamari. not wanting to discourage him in trying new foods, i gave him a piece. but he insisted on one of the pieces that had the tentacles.
"okay," i thought to myself, "if that's what he wants".
i gave him the calamari. he promptly turned it around with tentacles down, and announced to the table "araña" (spider). but the funniest part was that he then promptly picked it up and took a huge bite, even though he had just told us it was a spider!
later on, when his spaghetti was brought out, he announced that it was "gusanos" (worms). which he devoured.
i wonder what goes through his little mind, thinking that his parents feed him spiders and worms.

Ha ha! He just knows that worms=protein!
I love this story. Grace likes calamari a lot.
