{pretty, funny, happy, real} another breakfast for K

The ripe read pepper in the fruit basket looked so pretty.  Perhaps the oatmeal did not.  K asked for it with please and did not whine when I equivocated, so I got out my cutting board and knife, and gave her sliced red pepper and hothouse tomato for breakfast.  I was happy that she ate most of the red pepper.  Hot house tomatoes are not quiet real.  So I wound up eating them.  Funny breakfast.

  1. I remember reading something once about how little kids don’t understand the concept of “breakfast food” vs “dinner food” – that’s impossed by us adults. My boys can each eat a whole pepper too, although they’ve never asked for it for breakfast :)

    • I’ve heard that the idea of ‘breakfast foods” were hard for cereal manufacturers to introduce.

  2. Kalista loves red peppers. She even will eat roasted red bell peppers for a snack. She ate 1/2 can of black olives while her homemade chocolate cookie sat right next to her. She didn’t touch the cookie! Love to see that!!

    • Well, you know her cousin’s first full sentence was “Momma, I want olives.”

  3. Actually, her choice sounds good to me…I had leftover chicken tamale casserole for the last two mornings!
