*Cue
Music* And………
When I announced we were going to try smoothies in Operation IFO, I also mentioned there were a number of sensory sensations involved with drinking said smoothie in Riley World. My
now IRL bloggie friend Bec came up with an ingenious suggestion (as always). Start off with a non-diary version. Use apple juice (since R will drink that)
instead of milk/yogurt. D’oh!! *slides
yogurt to the back of the fridge*
And
so we started with this…
As with anything new…I started off small. There was only 4 ounces in his glass.
I anticipated much gagging and protesting so I reverted back to the good ol’ days when a desired food was on standby (at the table and ready to eat as soon as he finished the new food). I assumed my no eye contact stance and called R to the table.
You're shocked aren't you?? I was! Now much
of the time when the straw was in R’s mouth he was not actually drinking
anything. Oh. Next
time...I am going with a bigger cup. ;P
Have a great weekend!!
Have a great weekend!!
YAHOO!!! Gotta say, though, that was pretty anti-climactic. :)
ReplyDeleteToday smoothies, tomorrow green flecks!
Haaahaaa.....wasn't it though?? Dare I say my work here is done *brushing hands up and down* :D
DeleteAwesome. And may I say the Barry Manilow is a definite bonus here. :)
ReplyDeleteI couldn't help myself...the chorus just kept popping into my head! Haha!
DeleteOooh, think of all the things you can HIDE in a smoothie!!! And for a whole new kind of food - amazing! About half-way through I'm thinking, "No table banging?!" ...and there it was. Never disappointed in Riley's adventures! ;)
ReplyDeleteWe aim to please here Tammy...we aim to please. Wouldn't want you leaving disappointed. ;P
DeleteSmoothies are awesome since you can sneak all sorts of nutrients in! Go you!
ReplyDeleteRight??? The possibilities are endless!!! Well...at least that's what I'm hoping for Stacie!
DeleteYay, S is indeed for smoothie! Did he mention it again after this or have you tried another one? Watch out for lumps, peaches have a really gross texture. Oh and I love that you can call me your IRL friend :D
ReplyDeleteI giggle every time I type IRL friend. Tee hee.
DeleteMore video coming soon.......
