Midnight Musings

I've been thinking recently about the fact that so many terms of endearment for children revolve around food - honey(bun), sweetie(pie), sugarplum, pumpkin, cookie, dumpling. It's a little sick, don't you think? In French, they're "little cabbages". It loses something in the translation but, hey, it's French. In Spanish they're called ducklings, which is cute and not immediately associated with food. By normal people.
