How Bizarre?

I am happy to be able to say that I was raised in a family where the saying at the dinner table was, "Where He leads me I will follow, What He feeds me I will swallow."
This is why, I think, I soooo enjoy foods of all ethnic backgrounds...and yes, the strange and bizarre.

I'm drawn to the Andrew Zimmern's show Bizarre Foods. ( FYI: He just started a new season of Bizarre World...and I'm incredibly disappointed. He doesn't try out so many freaky foods...and instead wastes time talking about mystic religions...barf! I guess I'll watch reruns of Bizarre Foods.)

I am starting to think though...that maybe it's rubbing off on the kids. I want them to try all sorts of food...and to not be picky eaters...something I'm very adverse to...I consider it rude to not at least try something...but....
...today...my sweet daughter brought me her blue hippo on a plate. I didn't think much of it, at first.

I said, "Oh did you make this for me?"

She said, "Yes, make sure you twy de ears. They's the best part...crunchy and dewishus!"

I pretended to eat one...and then she did too.

Hehehe...how bizarre, how bizarre!!
