Amy has been a little gourmet from quite an early age on. Her favourite is garlic and balsamic vinegar encrusted pork fillet with sautéed potatoes and pan-fried green asparagus, but she also loves Thai green curry or pickled chillies. Last night however, she had a rather different suggestion when I asked her what we wanted to cook for dinner.
Our conversation went something like this:
Me: What do we want to eat for dinner tonight, Amy?
Amy: Betty! (the cat)
Me: Are you sure?
Amy: Yes, she’s yummy!
Me (playing along and obviously not considering doing any of it): Ok, shall we cook her or put her in the oven?
Amy: In the oven, it’s hot!
Me: And what do we want to have her with?
Amy: Mushrooms in her belly and pepper on her ears.
Doesn’t that sound tasty, who’s coming round for dinner?
Disclaimer: No pets have been harmed during dinner preparations!
erm ok, remind me never to come to yours for dinner when Amy’s cooking!
Might be safer than the times when I’m behind the stove 😉
He he, so cute. I love that she at least asked for some vegetables to go with the cat.
She loves her veggies, even more so than meat 😉
That is so cute! We get a lot of that sort of thing here at the moment too and I just love how the imagination grows. My little one is really into trying to tell jokes and it looks like Amy is getting the hang of them as well. I wonder what she will be cooking up tomorrow?
It’s so funny, isn’t it? She makes me laugh so much.
She was playing with her cousin this afternoon in her toy kitchen and they were serving up some rather interesting concoctions 😉
How funny! And that’s fantastic that she’s so adventurous when it comes to food, I’m afraid that mine just live on pasta!
Oh yes, she’s a real foodie. Bit extreme at times -ahem 😉
Are we going to be BritMums LIVE road trip buddies this year? I’m dying to a grown up Amy.
Depends on if I’m taking Ben and Amy are not, but I can always bring her along to Bristol meet ups 😉 x
Now that sounds like an interesting dish! Love the pic too, cool hat! 🙂
She made that while I was cooking. Creamy chicken, not the cat 😉 x
Wow she is adventurous 🙂
Seriously though, I can’t believe she eats all of that! Cherry pretty much lives on pasta with pesto, it’s ridiculous! xx
Hehe, she is. She’d have probably even eaten the cat, if she had been able to convince me 😉
I *may* possibly have other plans for Dinner 😉
Next time, maybe.
We could borrow our neighbours’ guinea pig? 😉
Wow how do you get a gourmet child like that? The most adventurous food my kids will eat are a few olives on their pizza (well, it’s Italian!)
I don’t know, we’ve just always given her what we are eating x
Oh no! Poor kitty! Not going to be an animal-lover then is she? 😉
Crazy enough, she loves her dearly. I have no idea where her inspiration for stuffed cat came from 😉
They are hilarious! My little boy did want to have Barley (our dog!) for dinner once! Although I didn’t delve into how he should be cooked 😉 x
Haha so so funny, I love what goes through their little heads. Remind me not to come over to your house for dinner. 😉 x
