Surprise, surprise

Well, knock me over with a feather. I sent "disgusting" grapefruit juice to my son's classroom for their party, and he tells me that the other drink available was an "icky punch nobody liked" so they opened my juice and drank every drop!

What is it with kids these days? They drink grapefruit juice, and they eat tofu too. I wouldn't do those things for anything when I was a kid, I had to "get old" first.

Tofu? These children really ARE advanced!

It is funny, though, the things we wouldn't even consider ( even under pain of no dessert for a week) when we were younger somehow become not so bad when we're grown.

I make my salad with spinach leaves ( though sprouts still make me gag). I eat feta cheese. I love my broccoli....although beets and creamed corn are still two of the most putrid things on earth, and Brynn will never have to even try them, cause I won't have them in the house!

How much do you want to bet that the "icky punch" was another mom's desperate 7:59am contribution? =D

My eldest will eat plain tofu with a spoon, right out of the carton - I don't mind tofu and often cook with it, but I'm sorry.... even I don't do *that* O.o

I love beets, they make you purple. And creamed corn, oh yum! Shoot, my brother and I used to fight over canned spinach with lemon pepper on it, so maybe it runs in my family after all.

Beets and brusselsprouts, mmmmm! Can I come to your house for lunch? Do you like turnips, too? Yummy!

Yes I do, especially in an good Irish Stew... you're making me hungry thinking about it. :-)

You're an amazing woman, Prim =D Warped about the whole veggie issue, maybe, but amazing nonetheless.

*and yes, you can have all the creamed corn that I don't want...had I known that, I could've provided you with about 12 years' worth!*
