Will She Eat It?



Quincy was the pickiest eater of all of my toddlers. She had a phase where all she would touch were bagels with cream cheese, oatmeal, yogurt, and rice. 

Now days, the “one food” she won’t eat is lasagne, and when preparing her own meals, she eats the most like I do. She is the only Willardson child who likes pickles, steak, cucumbers, avocados, mustard, or tomatoes. She loves snack plates like I do and will fix up a plate with salami and cheese and grapes, or hummus and pretzels and apples and peanut butter, or toast with cottage cheese and avocados and everything topping on it.  

At Sam’s Club yesterday, she was delighted to be offered a sample of sushi. I politely declined the offer, but Q jumped on board. “I’ve always wanted to try sushi! It’s so cool looking I already know I will like it! It looks just like my Barbie sushi!” 
And like it, she did. She tried a California roll and a spicy crab and avocado roll and raved about it so much, Corbin and I tried that one too.   Way to try new foods, Q!

That's awesome. I remember you typing about Q's palate. I love when kids go from picky to adventurous. For years, Elsa would only eat those wee tinned mac and cheeses. Now, she eat everything she's offered, even if it's just a bite. Her only "no way every" food is mayo.

Q's smile just radiates. I smile in response to see hers every single time.
