Pinocchio Bananas


Earlier this week my daughter asked if she could have a banana for a snack. I thought that was a good choice since our brown bananas needed to be eaten--and because I don't eat brown bananas. As she was peeling the banana it broke off and fell on the table. It was a very tragic moment accompanied by a few tears. My daughter only likes to eat her banana while holding the peel. I was afraid this banana might go to waste. No way was I going to eat that brown banana. But with some quick thinking we created Pinocchio bananas with a little chocolate syrup and a toothpick. And like magic the tears went away and the banana got eaten up.


Phew! No brown bananas for me.

  2. Amy, you are great. I'm so glad Olivia went for it. (I don't think Jacob would have.) You are a creative mom.
