Mary: You can use Amelia’s car seat. It’s a little cleaned out.
Jenni: …..hmmm……

Jenni: Mary was telling me about the time she ordered a mild dish at a Thai restaurant, and you corrected her saying that she wants baby-food-bland, not mild.
Tracy: Oh yeah.
David: Baby food is bland?
Jenni: Yes, no salt or spices. Just plain vegetables or fruit. I like tasting veggies without the salt.
