Green eggs and ham


Benjamin's preschool class was supposed to make green eggs and ham in honor of Dr. Suess' birthday. They postponed the activity until Monday, however, and Benjamin doesn't go on Mondays. So, on the way home we were talking about eating it; I even had to tell a Phoebe and Daisy story about it. Anyway, I said I could make it for lunch. I used my "magic spoon" and some magic words to change the eggs green. Benjamin, who never eats eggs when I make them, loved it. And Paul, who normally can't get enough eggs, wanted nothing to do with them. (Of course, I don't think Paul was very hungry, since he had a bowl of cereal, banana, and half a bagel for breakfast. He then proceeded to have a sample of cheese, lunch meat, grapes, and bread at the grocery store.) I wonder if this magic trick will work on any other foods Benjamin doesn't like...
