Adorable. I think it is important for kids to be educated about food, and to appreciate good food.

Great post! I am always overcome with mommy guilt when there’s nothing good to eat in our kitchen…
Glad your promoting the good stuff! Oh, and, btw.. my niece is a Caitlyn…

That is wonderful you are raising your daughter to be so educated about food! And she is a smart consumer. You are doing A GREAT JOB, Mom! BTW I have wonderful niece named Kaitlyn. She goes by Kait. I have always loved that name.

Meredith, wouldn’t that be great if we’ve helped them develop a taste for healthy, fresh, good food!

Therapy Doc, Cait? Have me trained? When? Where?! LOL! She’s pretty darn wonderful, that kid, if I do say so myself.

Jan, do you have any Italian in you? My mother’s like that too–very Italian. I think I must have gotten it from her…

My children and now my grandchildren have always equated the contents of my refrigerator with my measure of love. I’m considering a padlock.

I love, love, love your kid on so many levels. Hats off, she’s almost got you trained.

It sounds like you’ve done a great job so far, raising your daughter. It is funny in a good way that she was sad about her food choices. I am thinking one of my girls may be on that same track, she likes the good stuff.

Hi Elizabeth! Cait’s full name is Caitlin. Is there another name on the planet with so many different spellings?! LOL.

That’s a great story! Thanks for stopping by my blog party. Is your daughter’s name Caitlyn? My daughter is Kaitlyn. Nice to “meet” you!

Kailani–just think of all the good restaurants out there hankering for a review. Of course, Cait would need an experienced dining partner to help sample a wider selection of the menu… :)

Stephanie, I think it’s some kind of kid gene– ordering the most expensive item on the menu.
