Bravery!

From the movie Ratatouille:

“I know I’m supposed to hate humans, but there’s something about them. They don’t just survive, they discover, they create…I mean, just look at what they do with food!”

Sometimes the bravest thing you can do in a day is to taste something new and different. One of our favorite things to do is go to the seafood counter with our 4 year old and let him choose what we have with dinner that night.  Living in Texas, seafood isn’t the most popular thing around and I love fostering the ‘odd ball’ choice.

Try something new and strange and scary this weekend with a brave friend!

A plate can have one new item and two old favorites.  The two old favorites can draw you into Mindful Eating.  Close your eyes, chew a few moments longer and see if you can put words or feelings to the taste.

  1. I really like the prompt for trying a new food – pretty sure I can work that in somewhere this weekend- though, the challenge here may be thinking of something I haven’t had…. Hmmmmm, may ask one of my lovely neighbors from another country for suggestion!! hugs and love, woman – want to know what new thing you try too 💙

    2. Fat Bob – sushi with green chilis, fried banana, eels and cucumber. AMAZING. Two old fav’s for mindful eating- salted caramel cheese cake and Monkey balls!!!
