Watermelon!
I keep wondering if there will be a journal entry saying Mikey no longer likes watermelon. It happened at some point, but apparently, the summer of 2015 was not it.
I mean, watermelon was still clearly a hit! There are about 5 pieces of watermelon gone and a half of a banana left on the plate…and I probably only gave him half of the banana to begin with…mostly to help slow down the digestion of all that watermelon. So much for that brilliant plan. Eye roll.
