Farm. It was chilly over there, but the kids loved feeding the animals the lettuce and celery we brought with us. It was also a good opportunity to start helping them make associations between animals and the food we like to eat. My kids love sausages and ham (we even had a ham sandwich with us) and lo and behold the farm has a pig. Being kids, they were not at all phased by the fact that the cute little pig we were feeding would son die and become a sausage. In fact, Liam looked right at the pig, gave him some celery and said "oh, hi pig, i like sausage."On to dinner: I made an Orange Beef & Broccoli recipe (with brown rice on the side) that I got from a Rachel Ray magazine. It was quick to make, but did require a few ingredients that I would not always have on hand (corn starch, hoisin sauce, plum sauce).
The Verdicts:
Sofia: she said thumbs up, but did not eat too much (perhaps the smoothie she had at the mall 90 minutes earlier had something to do with it)
Jack: Loved the rice (i put the sauce from the beef on the rice)
Liam: Meat, meat, met. He loved the meat and its all he ate.
