The Burrito Queen

My adorable three-year-old daughter L has decided that she has a favorite food at last. It is the old standby of a burrito. I make them on a semi-regular basis, because SH loves them as well.

At first, L did not like it when I made this dish. However, as she witnessed her Daddy wolfing them down, she actually tried one. She has not stopped eating them since.

When I make them for Dinner, I try to make a few more than I think we will eat. This is due to the fact that she demands one for both Breakfast and Lunch! When she gets up before I do, she runs to the fridge and then brings the package of tortillas to me saying "I want a beeto". If I refuse, saying that they are not a breakfast food, there is trauma. Lots and lots of trauma.

I tried an experiment this week. I let her have a "Beeto" whenever she wants. I am afraid that I have created a monster. For you see, I must run to the store today, because she has consumed the last one, and I am out of ingredients to make more. I fear the trauma that will come at breakfast tomorrow if a "Beeto" is not waiting for her in the fridge.
