The munchies
Ben is teething - an on going experience - so we got him some of those teething biscuits. Now, I don't know about you, but I actually remember these things! In fact I have very fond memories of them so I was quite disturbed to have a nibble on one fresh out of the pack and discover that it tastes like a dog biscuit. Never mind - Ben doesn't seem to care.

Scott!
I don't remember them. There's so much that I managed to block out in those first few years.
However, I confess that I, too, as an adult have nibbled.
"Its my secret shame..."
(Cue Homer eating flowers in the bathroom.)
Oh -- and a baby nibbling Story, just for fun?
[Scott, feel free to pull this off if it does not fit a Blog on your dear son!]
OK. I'm in Atlanta in late December. And my wife and I decide that we are going to find a church and do a cold visit. So we look up the Anglican Mission in America website and find a little church in Roswell, Georgia [No -- the little green men are being kept hidden in New Mexico, not Georgia].
First visit. Tiny Church. A little ‘higher’ than I might have been used to from Sydney. And during the first Hymn, Oliver, my 1 year old and I are up the back letting Oliver run around a bit.
But he sees a lone biscuit next to a cup of juice. The biscuit and the cup are fancy. The biscuit has a cross embedded in it. Like a Hot Cross bun, I think to myself.
Now -- it did cross my mind that this seemed odd to have a lone biscuit in a nice place. But the only explanation that I could come up with was that some older lady liked her after-church-snacks the way she liked it.
Oliver takes a nibble. This is no rusk. He places it back on the plate. He don't like it. So I take a nibble. This is no normal biscuit.
This is the elements of the Lord's Supper.
Oops.
What does one do at that point?
There is no going back.
Can I ask your bloggers, Scott, to offer suggestions as to what they would do in that situation?
[Bear in mind that I wouldn't care if I was the minister. But assume for a minute that the guy upfront does care. This guy looks to you like a full-on priest. Everything else you've seen points to that possibility.]
What do you do about the two noticeable nibbles in the ‘host’?
