One fun thing that’s been happening during the quarantine is that each of my three now has to plan, make, and serve dinner once a week.
This week, Anna decided to make spaghetti sauce–and much to her dismay, she discovered onions are a key ingredient in her favorite dish.
As she strapped on a pair of goggles, unpeeled the onion and pulled out the chopping block, here is a sample of her commentary…
“My fingers smell bad!”
“Why do we have to put in onions?” (“Because the onions are what gives it flavor.”) “Yeah…bad flavor!”
“I can’t see!”
“My nose tickles!”
“I’m getting dizzy!”
“I have to wash my fingers!”
“Are you writing down why we don’t have to put onions in our sauce?”
The good news is, soon enough I just might get out of the kitchen three nights a week. The bad news is, the veggies in this house can no longer be served in disguise.
