We wanted to do something special for Immi’s birthday, and we had an idea to go to the beach. We just weren’t sure if we should go this weekend or the next weekend. Suddenly in the afternoon, we decided that today was the day…so we packed up and headed out.
After 1.5 hour drive from home, we got to the beach. The almost-birthday-princess splashed about along the water, Ashland hung out in the stroller, Todd photographed the sky and the ocean.
It’s a glorious day at the beach — hard to believe it’s still February!
…And then, the sun set.
I made paella *inspired* seafood & saffron rice thing as a side dish for dinner today. Immi of course won’t eat it until I sprinkled kastuobushi and soy sauce on it. [Just so I'm not misleading: dinner I make — if I make it at all — don't always have "side dish"]
Immi’s been a picky eater lately. I can get her to eat some of the veggies by sprinkling soy sauce on it. But not every veggies.
I’m not sure why she loves soy sauce so much.
She has a unique way of eating cucumber rolls — sit the sushi in the soy sauce and wait few minutes to let saturate (she only gets low sodium soy, I even diluted it water sometimes). She has an amazing patience for this especially considering she is not even three.
Immi loves ketchup too. She won’t eat anything with it, however. She just wants to eat it with a spoon.
Do let me know, if you think of a way for me to get Immi to eat variety of food!
