If you didn't believe that my kids actually eat vegetables, here is the proof. Middle Monkey is eating a baked acorn squash with nothing on it but a little bit of butter. Yes, I am bragging.
Now look, some monkey or another has put a plastic bug on my Valentine's flowers. Naughty or nice?
Has anyone ever grown potatoes in bags? If so, did it work?
Nice, nice! It means they NOTICED the flowers!
ReplyDeleteNaughty--but cute!!
ReplyDeleteYum--acorn squash--but sprinkle a little cinnamon on mine please! :)
That's definately something worth bragging about!
ReplyDeleteI'd have to say nice since no petals were broken/removed AND it's not a real OR harmful pest.
I grew flowers in bags once, but wasn't totally satisfied. How cute of your monkey to pose for the photo; go monkey!!!
ReplyDeleteYum I love squash with just butter. The bug is a very nice addition too(-: At least its not real!!!
ReplyDeleteBugs are cool so I'm voting nice :)
ReplyDeleteBut then again, i have tarrantulas as pets so i may be a little skewed.
mmmmm squash....make me some too please.
As well you should brag! I wish mine would eat that kind of thing.
ReplyDeleteYour kids are so funny, putting the bug on your flowers.
I have let potatoes sprout roots from neglecting them. Does that count? Now what are you talking about growing them in a bag. That intrigues me.
ReplyDeleteI had no doubt that your kids would eat veges. Isn't this the kid who ate the blossoms last year?
Ha! This is great! I have never dared to eat a (nearly) naked winter squash myself, preferring them pureed and added to other dishes, so I am SO impressed! As for the Valentine bug, raising kids to have a great sense of humor may be the biggest favor you've ever done for them or humankind. Go Monkeys go!!!
ReplyDeleteTatyana, I think he was trying to scare me.
ReplyDeleteLinda, right darling:)
Cinj, That's true. He didn't mess it up at all.
Nola, I am trying the potatoes in the bad thing. It is supposed to work great. We'll see. The monkey says thank you.
Nickie, AHHHHHHHHH
Foxy, I don't think I could get one of my to eat caviar like yours will.
Anna, Teenage Monkey is the one who eats morning glory blooms. Weird kid.
OFB, Thanks. I hope they don't scare me to death trying to get a laugh though.
Well, I think that monkey with the plastic bug was attempting his hand at decorating. And he did a pretty darned good job!

Aw, thanks Brenda. I needed a positive spin on that.
