When we say anything... we mean anything!

For as long as Carolina has been eating food of the non-baby variety she has been very willing to try just about anything. We have always told people that Carolina is pretty much a goat when it comes to eating. She will try just about everything and the stuff that she really enjoys sometimes borders on being just weird (like apples dipped in ketchup). But last night took the cake, the really funky I cant believe she is eating that (and enjoying it cake). It was by far the strangest and I have to say again the grossest thing I have ever seen her eat & she LOVED it!! We had Chinese takeout for dinner last night and just got buffet to-go. Which meant we had a whole range of things to choose from. I had Lina with me and she was picking out some stuff that she wanted. Nothing to crazy to start with, some fruit, a couple of hard boiled eggs, jello, oh and sushi (the child LOVES sushi!) But then she saw "them" and asked me what they were. I told her that I was pretty sure what they were baby octopuses and I really really didn't think she would like them. She insisted that she really wanted one and hey, who was I to say no?  So here it is folks! Not only did she actually take a bite, but she ate every bit of it! She even   stuck her finger in its head and pretended it was a finger puppet. I know weird right!!!! I cant wait to show her this and tell her all about it in ten years. She will either be completely grossed out or she will make a living eating exotic foods.

I can't believe she ate that! (And that she pretended it was a finger puppet first.) I think I would have lost my dinner watching her eat it so kudos to you if you didn't. :)
