My wife toasted a pan of sesame seeds to grind into a paste (which goes great with jam on toast).
She mixed the seeds with a spoon to speed up the cooling and left the pan on the dinner table to cool.
While playing around after dinner, the boy climbed onto a chair and grabbed a spoonful to taste.
I saw him put the spoon in his mouth and sqauwked loudly to keep him from dipping the now-dirty spoon back into the seeds.
He’s quite sensitive to being reprimanded and immediately started bawling.
When my wife went up to him, he was blubbering about not wanting the spoon on the table.
There’s a certain measure of truth to his complaint. After all, he couldn’t have misused the spoon if it wasn’t there in the first place!
