There’s something fishy about that butter…

Oct 6th, 2005 by Accidental Thinker

I’m not a fan of tuna. Since I don’t prepare foods I don’t eat, my family is deprived of lots of things. One of them being tuna. I’m not sure Noah has ever had it, until last night.

We were tired after a long day of playing hooky at Disney (we had a good excuse; it was Maia’s birthday!) and wanted to grab a quick bite for dinner on the way out. We settled on sandwiches, and Kent chose tuna since he never gets it at home. The plan was to share it with Noah, but Noah wasn’t having any of that. So Kent did the logical thing. He spread a little of that tuna on some bread and told him it was butter. Noah wolfed down every bite!

Did I ever mention that my husband is a genius? I would never have thought of that.

Good thing it wasn’t horseradish. LOLI remember hating tomatoes as a boy. When my mother told me catsup was made from them I almost died.Now I love them, especially on a burger, right under the jalapenos.And horseradish.

My friend shared her newest favorite diversionary tactic for 3 yr olds.
Her son wanted waffles for b’fast, but she was pretty sure that WASN’T
on the menu for the day. So when they get to school:Owen: Mr. Johnny, are we habin waffles today?Mr. Johnny: YES Owen! We’re having blueberry muffins today!Owen (with the biggest grin on his face, like he’d won the lottery): MOMMA! We’re habin blueberry muffins today!She
said the next time he asks for ‘sammiches’ for dinner, she’ll try “YES
Owen! We’re having meatloaf and green beans for dinner tonight!” Let’s
see how far that gets her. 🙂

Although Kent may actually BE a genius, I would be worried about Noah’s olfactory senses!

All four of our kids called all meat chicken until they went to school. It eliminates a lot of questions.

I can’t help it. I’m laughing. Too funny.

I had frogs legs once. My mother told me it was chicken. I doubt I’d
ever eat it again, even though it was very tasty when I thought it was
poultry. I’d keep envisioning that creature on the discecting board in
8th grade! Ewww…

Lumpy butter.My daughter doesn’t have hardly any sense of smell due to all her sinus problems over the years, but she CAN smell tuna.
