One of the nice things about summer is that the summer
fruits start to appear, and it’s no longer about eating just apples and pears.
Oranges, grapes, strawberries, and eventually peaches and nectarines, you just
can’t beat it. We try to feed the kids fresh fruit every day for either
breakfast or lunch, preferrably both, and then veggies for supper. The fruit
thing works well when you have variety, because they’re more inclined to be
enthusiastic about eating it rather than being forced. As you can imagine, this
is more difficult in winter. We’ve been eating oranges like they’re going out
of style.
They tire of eating the same thing every day, however, but I
have noticed that as they get older, they’re more tolerant of the repetition,
not to mention welcoming of things they didn’t like as much a couple of years
back. I’m glad for that, but it ain’t easy maintaining a healthy diet. Then
again, the best things in life don’t come easy.
Until the next time, thanks for reading, and thanks to Mrs Magic for the pic.
