Last week I made Zucchini Moussaka for dinner. We had not had it in quite a while, and I'm not sure Lydia had ever eaten it. Of course she wanted towatch (and help) me make it earlier in the day. When dinner time came, she was sitting in her booster cheering when it came out of the oven. She kept saying "Yum!". This seemed unusual, but then she's two, so you just never know what they decide is funny or weird or YUM!
I put her portion on her plate to cool and after the prayer she dug right in. After a few bites, the reason for her previous anticipation became clear. She said, "It's not choc-wit Mom," as if I had been misleading her all day! She seemed to enjoy it despite the fact that it wasn't the yummy dessert she had been expecting. =) She likes Italian type foods and was even convinced that the sauteed onions were noodles.
The slices of zucchini were not as well liked. I had given her both a fork and a spoon for the meal so she could use whichever utensil was easiest. (We are battling with her about using utensils these days. The novelty has long since worn off and she just wants to get the food to her mouth with the most ease and speed!) Anyway she was spooning the food in with ease and picking out the zucchini slices and placing them carefully on her fork which was on the table beside her plate. I was quick to remind her that she was going to have to eat some of the zucchini too. Her response - "Dey're waitin' right on da fork for me, mom."

Very cute story! Did she end up eating her fork-stored goods?
That girl already likes to help out in the kitchen -- what a great thing! I can't wait to have some extra hands in MY kitchen. Well, I do have extra hands, bu they're usually destroying my tupperware cabinet, not helping me make dinner.
Your daughter says the cutest things!!!
Poor girl. I'd be disappointed if I got vegetables when I thought I was getting chocolate - and I'm a vegetable liking adult!
Jen, very nice to catch up on your blog after being gone almost 3 weeks! Very sweet about Lydia praying. How did you answer her about Dora? rob
