We had all the same rules at our dinner table and just the smell of cooked peas made me sick and we got the "kids starving in India" reprimand, lol. But then I had cold peas with cold corn mixed with mustard in France and fell in love with them...I don't think they have any nutritional value though and apparently are very starchy--after all that!<br /><br />xo Mary JoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10198791077499236420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575124099588454367.post-47949463171014677582012-08-10T20:43:27.166-05:002012-08-10T20:43:27.166-05:00How clever you seem to always have been!!

When I was full, I was done. My mother was born into the idea that no food should remain on the plate. Do you know how many starving children are in Africa who would LOVE to eat the rest of that food? It didn't matter what the food was; it could be something I loved. But if I was full, I was not eating anymore and you can't make me because I am 7 and I WILL sit at this table all night, lady. (I fell asleep many a night at the table but not before I learned to have the dog sit under my seat for things I didn't like. He was the perfect quiet food disposal).<br /><br />Also, peas are toothless people food.Arnebyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16445670708629187950noreply@blogger.com
