Here's our jolly little green giant, helping out with the cabbage and peas that are coming on.
He acts like it is the best magic trick ever for Keith and I to pop open a pea pod for him, and he's starting to get the hang of it himself.

Get Your Greens
Bert, he's a funny kid. He loves to eat spinach straight from the garden but won't touch it when it is on his plate at supper time. Peas are fantastic raw, only so-so cooked. So these days, we basically let him eat as much raw out of the garden as he wants and don't worry too much when his plate looks a little light on the veggies.

A few more years and he might not find shelling peas as fun! Keep these pictures close as evidence!!
ReplyDeleteNo, he probably won't! Oddly enough, these days I find sitting and shelling peas to be pretty relaxing.
DeleteOh my goodness, your boy is so cute! (I may be a bit biased, though, because I have my own little blonde-haired-blue-eyed wonder.) I think it is so wonderful for kids to eat their food straight out of the garden...so many don't have that opportunity or understanding. Good for you - and yummy for him!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, what a cabbage! And how cute is it that he's shelling peas. Jude hasn't gotten the hang of it yet, but you're right when you say that it's like a magic trick to them.
