Tiwa watches all the food and walks over with a smile,

"Trying new things?"

We look up at the girl and consider her question.

"Yes and no," I say before glancing around the table. After all, some things are new and some things are old. Some things are only new because they've never been combined with other things, at least not for me. We've never tasted them together.

Peanut-butter and jelly had been a revelation some weeks ago, after all.

She leans towards him, his eyes are amazing and shiny,

"Oh, what's good?"

We didn't really understand the question, at least not to mean that we could answer it. What was good? Everything was good. Every bit of food, every scrap, every crumb. Every tiny piece held texture and flavor and all of it was wonderful. Some of it was more wonderful and some of it was less wonderful, but all of it was worth eating, or so we thought.

"All of it. Why wouldn't it be good?"
