In an effort to encourage Cassius to branch out and eat more things than just quesadilla, hot dogs, and turkey sandwiches, I subscribed to a kids' cooking kit that comes twice a month. The first package came, and hoo boy, was Cassius excited. I told them that there was an extra apron for Maceo, and it was a present from Cassius for Maceo. Cassius insisted we start cooking, so we made our ingredients list, and once I'd gone shopping we started making the first dish: pad thai!

| The kit comes with a tool. This time it was a whisk. |

| Cassius is chopping green onions. Maceo is chopping carrots. |
 |
| Maceo cracks the eggs. Cassius is still chopping onions. |
 |
| Juicing the limes! |
Once the dish came together, Cassius had a crisis. He didn't want to eat it and he broke down into tears. Finally, he tried one noodle. And he liked it.
Baby steps.
