The art thing is a good question. Working in theatre, even the physical things we make are ephemeral, so I learned pretty quickly that they weren't precious and would be changed and possibly destroyed. I have worked with non they're seamstresses, and it is really hard to tell them to change something because they have loved the thing, and I love the show.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Do kids just have more sensitive taste buds? It seems like many kids don't really like flavors- hence the too spicy.

Yes - kids have more tastebuds than adults (we lose them as we age), so to some extent they are all tiny little supertasters.
Interesting. So our tastes literally change as we age.
Just checking in. Probably not around much today because work.
I should have stuck to digital art, where it can be reproduced a zillion times and I never have to feel like I've lost anything.
There are people who find ways to reproduce paintings in this fashion. I wonder if you would feel better with a hi-res scan or photo of your painting always available to you.
Having a good quality scan always soothed me after I gave away one of my better pastel paintings to a crazy guy I dated.
I've always loved fresh summer tomatoes and roasting corn, but proselytizing about them would mean less for me. Good coffee is wasted on me though, I'm just as happy to drink something that's been burning in a pot all day, or even instant.

Yes. And kids tend to dig this notion. So explaining that their mouth changes just like everything else in their bodies is, in my experience, generally successful in getting them to try a bite.

That is correct. Vegetables in particular are much more bitter to young kids.
Beets are great pickled!
I ate a fair bit of venison growing up. Mom made venison mincemeat pies for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and my dad's birthday. The pie doesn't taste meaty per se, but it does add a certain richness to the apples and other fruit.
Mmm, that sounds good. I like a flavorful meat paired with fruit.
