In the spirit of banning things people find offensive (i.e. the word “bossy”), I have instituted a ban on asparagus. It is offensive to my olfactory sense. As if peeing itself wasn’t an inconvenience already.

This ban has perimeters. TH is allowed to consume asparagus under the following circumstances:

1. When he orders something and the vegetable is not listed in the dish but shows up anyway.

2. If he is out of town without me and the consumption occurs 24 hours prior to any risk of us sharing a toilet.

If consumption occurs out of politeness (think dinner party), he is quarantined to use the kids potty for 24 hours.

I hope I’m not being too bossy.
