"Who abducted Colby?"

After visitng Leslie I was inspired to make some salad for dinner last night. We aren't a very healthy family-vegetable wise. Jason doesn't like many veggies and the kids usually won't eat them, so I'm bad and the most we ever have is corn or peas. Anyway, Leslie made a salad with spinach leaves and it was so good. (Plus it looked really easy.) So I made a salad to go with dinner last night. I figured Jason and I could eat it, even though I knew the kids wouldn't.
Colby kept trying to open the thousand island dressing, so I asked him if he wanted some salad. Jason got home to Colby was stuffing his face with salad. "Chowing down" would be the right words to use. Jason said, "Who abducted Colby?" Who knew Colby would like spinach!?! Maybe he'll grow up to be like Popeye. I have always been amazed at kids who like salad, now I have one!
This is all that was left. He ate about 2 kiddie bowls full of salad. I still can't believe it.
