The WT On: Weaning

La Leche has been in operation since 1956, extolling the virtue of food by booby, and managing to make mothers everywhere feel lousy about themselves. (Some people have sensitive nipples or babies who grow teeth early. Lay off, La Leche. By the way, my friend pronounces this La-Leaky which brings forth quite the stunning visual.)

With all the obsessing about weaning, I wonder how La-Leaky would feel about WT apple juice?

One of the things WT fathers can be counted on to do is let their kids sneak sips of beer. It’s like, manly, and stuff. It’s not just the dads. A popular remedy for teething babies that mothers employ is rubbing whiskey on their gums. Which makes for happy babies.

Anyhow, a concoction very few outside the WT community know about is WT ‘apple juice.’ This is, quite simply, a way to gradually introduce your child to beer, ensuring a lifelong taste for it.

The formula is simple: 1 part beer to 2 parts Apple Kool-Aid. Apple is the only flavor that will work, as it blends with the flavor of the beer and quite effectively disguises the smell.

So, if you’d like to help the beer industry out, or just make your six-year-old nice and mellow, give it a try. You won’t be sorry.

My little bro on his first birthday. He sort of skipped the Kool-Aid part. He’s in prison now.
