What Does Zeke Want for Lunch?

We made sandwiches for lunch, which is usually a Zeke-approved meal. But the sandwich was a no-go today, so (being the nice mom I am) I offered to heat some soup. Zeke loves soup and acted excited the whole time I warmed up his lunch. Then of of course he didn't want it as soon as I got it on the table. What about the the leftover cheese or bread not used in the sandwich? Nope, that wasn't it either. I set all the options in front of him and told him he had to pick one thing for lunch. It was kind of traumatic for the hungry little feller.

Zeke still wasn't particularly interested in eating any of his lunch options, but he pointed to each one in turn, saying 'dis-a soup, dis-a sa, dis-a cheese, dis-a brea'. Do you want to eat this soup, sandwich, cheese, or bread? 'N-no!'

He finally ate enough cereal to be allowed to get down from the table, and then ate about half his sandwich while playing with the downstairs toys.
