The Princess and the Peas

Alternate title: Morgen versus the peas.

Trial Data (qualitative data only, of course)

Pureed peas = yuck, gag me, barf-o-rama.

Mashed peas = you think you can fool me with this crap?

Crushed individual peas = I'm not THAT stupid. These are PEAS! For crying out loud.

Cut up, but otherwise intact peas = you have somewhat ap-peas-ed me. I'll eat two.

Peas that have been peeled (not as hard as it sounds) = munch munch munch.

I think this child qualifies as a picky eater.

Wow! Peeled peas! A new culinary delight. Maybe you could sneak some peas into a cookie mix - think she would notice?

Well, I'll be. I had a friend that peeled grapes for her kids. But peeling peas is a first, such patience.

Just like your mom said you may have to come up with lots of unique ways to use veggies. I used to put shredded carrots in my meatloaf just to get extra veggies in Gavin & Matt.

Can't wait to see this in a week.

That's funny. He's so particular about his meatloaf these days...won't let me add anything extra to it at all...I wonder if he knew about the carrots?
