Then tonight out of nowhere, suddenly Q ate her carrots! It's been like 2 years since she ate a carrot, y'all. This is big. Is it because people kept asking her what her favorite vegetable was and she always said carrot even though she never ate them, and then she began to believe her own press? Is it because she finally encountered them 387 times and that was enough to get her used to them? Is it because we let her dip them in ketchup? (No, because we always allowed that and at most she would lick the ketchup off).

I don't know if she will ever eat them again, but for now I have a sense of triumph.
