Well, technically lunch time, but it's all "Dinnah time!" to Elsie!
Here Elsie and I take turns proving that it's physically impossible to feed someone else without making sympathetic funny faces. Just try!

Some irrelevant details: Elsie is feeding me watermelon and I am feeding her our favorite yogurt in the entire world, liberte coconut flavor. Not only is it full-fat, it has cream added. Oh yes. Oh yes. Some things are totally worth the extra calories, and this is one of them.
The sippy cup says something stupid like "child scientist" on it. I've taken Elsie to do a few studies at Harvard's child development department because even though I hate MY research, I don't hate all research. Bonus: a lovely friend of mine from Smith is one of the PhD candidates there. You get paid in free prizes. As often as I can manage it, I pull one over on Elsie and choose a sippy cup as compensation because we already have quite enough small cheap plush toys. Their sippy cups are the best!
The many-lobed tomato at the end of the breakfast bar is my own. We're knee deep in tomatoes already this summer, so life is good! That one is a Cherokee Purple, which is a very flavorful but not very high-yielding type of heirloom tomato. It's delicious. This one is wonky and had a spider living in its many crevices. EEK!
