vegans need not apply

In addition, or rather, in contrast to being the racial mixing pot that is my immediate and extended nephews and nieces, I have discovered that each has his/her distinct food preferences. 

(1) The fish-lover: my niece Ashlynn. Absolutely loved all my fish market pictures, too. "That's so funny!" she says. Although I am not sure exactly what she finds funny. 

(2) The meat-eater: my niece Sophie. Already notorious for a voracious appetite that belies her diminutive stature. AKA, "vacuum cleaner." Favorite word is "more!"

(3) The vegetarian: my nephew Pierce, aka "chocolate" (so dubbed by my grandparents, who exclaim Obama's election victory as particularly significant for our little "blackasian"). Loves fruits and vegetables.
