Vegies.

Until recently Mikaela hated mushrooms. She's okay with vegies generally - just so long as they are served separately. She doesn't like the 'all in one pot' style of cooking Chris and I prefer. She likes to be able to identify each item on her plate, and prefers not to have too many choices. She'd rather focus her efforts on one or two types of food - maybe chicken pieces and sliced tomato, or steamed carrots and broccoli. If you give her all four options, she'll just eat all of one (probably the carrot) and then ask for more of that.

But until recently she despised mushrooms and zuchinni. Zuchinni is still not on her list of favourite foods (and she definitely doesn't like it raw), but she will eat it now. But mushrooms. Yum! As long as they are sauted moreorless on their own. So that's what she's having for lunch. a bowl of sauted mushrooms (with basil). I steamed some broccoli too, which she usually likes, but she's leaving that to one side. Maybe she'll eat it when the mushrooms are all gone, maybe she won't. She's a funny thing.
