The younger brother of the birthday girl, now 22 months, toddles around at these functions gnawing on a carrot. He also had a rosy face from eating fresh strawberries. It was not all junk food. :-) There was also some yellow watermelon that was enjoyed by both adults and kids. I didn't try it, but they said it was very good.
