Move over, Gordon Ramsay

You wimps who think Chef Gordon Ramsay is a tough cookie obviously have never tried to get an 8-year-old boy to eat tomatoes. My grandson Milo HATES tomatoes and most things tomato-based, but last night he plowed through a variation on the Ropas theme con mucho gusto. I told him the dish is Cuban; Milo loves his Cuban Zampa Abe; ergo, he decided he loves tomatoes in this application. But the sweat beads were popping out on my brow as he sat down to sample it. That first bite told the story...

Today we're off on a mini fishing trip, and if we're lucky, some new food experience will also raise its head during the day. Ants? Exotic cheese? Or Tater Tots at Sonic? As they say in the blog world, I'll keep you posted. K.
