balanced diet

my husband's food pyramid consists of cheese. meat. bread. more cheese. more meat. and yet more bread. okay so it's more like a food rectangle. he thinks that because he takes medicine for his high cholesterol it is okay to eat these three things. and only these three things. so yesterday afternoon i was in the kitchen. sophie was taking a nap and my husband and will were watching veggie tales. a clever cartoon video series which uses vegetable characters to teach lessons. so, i hear will ask his dad what kind of vegetable one of them was. my husband's reply? well, it's smaller on top than on the bottom. i think that is a pear. a pear you ask? yeah, me too. i walked around the corner into the living room and i look at the tv. i said it's called veggie tales not fruit and veggie tales. it was an effing squash. ironically, squash is the only vegatable my husband will eat. too bad he doesn't even recognize it when he sees it.
