    Vegetables first means I’m going to sit here and watch them wilt.
    Dessert first means I’m actually doing the hardest part by far – which is to start.

      How would a vegetable wilt if you’ve eaten it? I think the metaphor is falling over.

      This isn’t about starting at all, it’s about the order of tasks presuming you are ready to begin work

        It would wilt cause I wouldn’t start eating it.
        And this is about starting for me.
