No. Not weird at all... I ate tons of potatoes when preggers with Nathan.
He can't stand them. He isn't even crazy about fries (as in, most children
like them...).

The other night we went out to Hops for dinner and Nathan asked our server
what his side choices were... he lit up when she mentioned rice...! Then he
was so bummed when she brought out fries. Poor little guy. Once we could
tear ourselves away from our steaks and noticed his fries we mentioned it to
the waitress and she rustled up the rice rather quickly and apologized to
him. He was quite pleased that our server treated him like a (?) young man
and not an infant. He's five going on 35! LOL
