Pepperbuns

No, that isn't Monkey's new nickname, or even her pornstar name (which, btw, would stink - she'd be Miss Oliver Street. Mine is a wee bit better, I'm Puff Holdridge...but I digress). No, pepperbuns is Monkey's new culinary concoction.

Let me start out by explaining that she is a true toddler with idiosyncratic dining preferences:

She LOVES biryani. But, she refuses to eat macaroni and cheese. She loves frozen waffles for breakfast. But, only if they are still frozen.

Like I said, she's a toddler.

However last night was a new one, even for her.

M came home from work and was eating dinner. Monkey, post-bath, wanted to join Daddy at the table and eat a hotdog bun (aka one of her favorite foods on earth). And, since she is a reliable mimic, she wanted to do what Daddy was doing and put freshly ground pepper on her food, too. So she did. She used the pepper mill and put WAY too much pepper on her bun. And ate it.

Ta dah! Pepperbuns. Um - eeeuw.

Ten bucks says I could get her to eat it again, tonight.
