Peas are NA-STY

Every Saturday we try a new fruit or vegetable for the week - this week was peas. To say the least they were NOT a hit.

Here she is giving us the "are we sure this is legal" face. Poor thing actually shuddered as she was trying to swallow. Guess that extra jar can be donated :)

But I agree with her sentiments on peas, so I guess I can't give her too much grief. Perhaps next we will try green beans... Gray didn't eat anything green until we started dating (unless you count iceberg lettuce) so I hope the kid knows that that will not fly in this household.

  1. Yes, better get her onto veggies, now! Cause how many green veggies do you see me eat now?? :-)

  2. They say it takes 15 or so tries to get them to "like" a new food, but with that face, who would make her try it again? :) I tried mixing with familiar ymmies. Like sweet potatoes on the spoon with the new veggie on the back end, and slowly increase the ratio of the new food until eventually Gus liked it. He won't eat sweet potatoes now, though. Guess he thinks he is being tricked!
