No, I'm not actually going to talk about Tres Leches (that's just my lame attempt at trying to be witty for part 3 of the series), but this time I decided to lighten it up a bit since I've gotten a little sappy in my last two installments. I'd like to give mention to something I think a lot of us our thankful for, and that's FOOD!!
I think I've always had a strange love of food and to be more exact, eating. I actually had a poster in my room growing up that just had different foods all over it and at the bottom is said, "I Love Food." That about sums it up I guess. I'm thankful for the fact that we always have food in our cupboards, that I have the ability to make good food, that we live in a city with great restaurants, the Food Network, cooking websites, lotions that smell like food...you name it; if it has to do with food, I'm thankful for it.
It's great because I happened to have found someone who loves food about as much as I do to marry! And now, we produced a child who may love it just as much as we do. Yesterday, I was eating a delicious butternut squash soup that I made and thought I would put a little on Leila's lip to see what she would do. Well, she lapped it right up and then smiled from ear to ear. I put a little more on her lip and again, she licked it and grinned! We still have a couple months before she is suppose to be eating solid foods, but I have a hunch it is going to be an easy transition. A family of food lovers!
That's all for today...I'm hungry and I've got a turkey sandwich and a pumpkin cupcake waiting for me.
And today's pictures:
I was trying to keep Leila up until Matt got home last night...but she just couldn't quite hold on...
This is my Cutie Patootie this morning!!
A couple of things.
ReplyDelete1. I laughed out loud in the coffee shop when I read that you had a poster in your room that said "I LOVE FOOD". That's borderline weird. Good thing you've always been skinny or you would have totally gotten made fun of for that as a fat kid with a fat kid poster.
2. Looove the pics of Leila dosing off to sleep. I would imagine that I look something similar to that when I dose off to sleep in the car.
3. Leila is starting to look different! Still cuter and cuter by the day, but maybe she's starting to look a little more white?
4. Just sat and read Pioneer Woman's new cookbook. From front to back. Im glad I have a sister-in-law who love's food and who I can talk to about the latest food network show with.. :)
