Aidan loves it when I go pick him up after school. So last Wednesday, it was my pickup day. I asked him what he wanted to have for lunch, and he only had one place in mind - Sweet Tomatoe. I even offered to go to McDonalds and he shot down that idea and said "They're giving out CDs!".
Umm, yeah, so the last time my husband took him to McDonalds for lunch, it was the week where they gave out these music CDs in the Happy Meals. Yeah, I thought that was lame too and obviously Aidan did too. I guess he thinks they give out the same thing again everytime. Ha.
So off to Sweet Tomatoe we went. Here's an iPhone edition shot of him during our lunch (please ignore the bad quality). His favorite food there is the "Tuna Tarragon". I'm still trying to find the recipe to that one. If anyone has one, PLEASE share the recipe with me here. I need to know how to make this for him. (So I don't have to go there so much anymore?!)
After our lunch there, we chatted and just hung out. As we were having dessert, I pulled out this one blog post I once saw from my friend, Jason's blog which had the cutest questions to ask your child.
I jotted down Aidan's answers on a paper napkin. They were quite entertaining. I'm sharing them here. This is what he said to me word for word as I asked him the questions.

I love his responses too. And he's a very healthy eater!
I have not tried the so-called tuna tarragon, but if you take a picture of it, I might be able to figure it out. Isn't it just tuna and tarragon? :-p Maybe some salt, pepper and olive oil?
Carolyn - You can see the Tuna Tarragon in the picture. It's the shell pasta... with some kind of pickle stuff... and tuna stuff. I wish I could find the whole recipe. If you have it, please send me!
