It's been over a week now, but this stuck with me so I thought I'd
share. I made breakfast that included toast. Guin requested some butter so I obliged.
Then she still wasn't eating. I offered to add preserves and she said yes and
added peanut butter too. I didn't want to waste food, so I just added almond
butter and raspberry preserves and made the toast into a sandwich. Holy Cow,
what a reaction! I covered her butter; put the bread together having the nut
spread touch the fruit spread... After finally tasting the separated sandwich,
her response was - Mmmm, not too bad.
I couldn't help but crack up laughing. It
so reminded me of myself the first time I had liver and onions prepared by my
dad. I had such a reaction and protest, but after tasting it I told my
dad I thought it tasted like liverwurst spread. My dad calmly explained that liver was an ingredient to the spread I liked so much and that's
why they taste similar. I peacefully ate the rest of my dinner with enjoyment.
What kind of reaction did she have? (Lol)... I know she exploded with you making a sandwich instead of leaving all separated! You made everything touch; boy Catie you should have known better...(Lol) When at my house I say "Pretty good huh" or "Hmmm... it's not to bad" when giving her a taste of something new or something she ask for that's a goody or treat... Those expressions are pretty much a standard at my house :) You're right, it is precious; she expresses herself right on que, so sweet! Oh yes, this interaction reminds me of both you and Stephan, hahaha!!!
