In The Autism World Lately

I thought I'd make a goat cheese and roasted tomato tart for

dinner tonight.  I had the last 6 garden tomatoes on the 

counter and thought this would be a yummy way to use them.

For roasting tomatoes, I used this recipe.  After they had roasted

 for 3 hours, I set the cookie sheet on the counter to cool.  When

 I came back into the kitchen a little later, this is what I found...

I knew immediately what had happened.  Alex! 

 He is known for eating anything and everything in the house. 

 I have to hide food if I need it for a meal or recipe!

One morning when he was younger, he ate a WHOLE meatloaf that

was in the refrigerator before the rest of us woke up!

Grrr.  

Yes, I yelled.  I ranted.  I may have even thrown a little tantrum.

It took about 30 minutes before I could laugh about it.

Oh, the life of living with autism!  Never a dull moment!  haha.

What finally made me laugh was Alex closing his eyes any time

he had to walk through the kitchen.  I'm not sure if he thought

this made him invisible or if he thought it made me invisible.
