My freshman son came home from college this week, so we were prepared to go out and get his typical favorite dinner foods at the grocery. Little did we expect that the list should now include all kinds of vegetables. Other than lettuce, about the only things we could get down him before were corn and green beans. Now he is asking for spinach, broccoli, mushrooms, kale (?!), etc.
We asked what prompted the change, and he said that he learned that eating a lot of vegetables, especially green leafy ones, was a healthy way to put on muscle mass. After losing a bunch of weight early in the fall due to mono, he wanted to get back into baseball shape as quickly as possible. So thank you, baseball, for succeeding in doing in a semester what we could not achieve in 18 years!
