George decided his eggs needed Adobo.
“There!” he proclaimed, and I looked up from the paper.
“Oh, George.” Pity the mom who gets so engrossed in the news. Pity the mom who leaves jars of spice within reach.
George admired his handiwork and took a big bite.
And then shuddered—visibly—from head to toddler toe.

Next up, egg cracking and apple slicing.

Bridget did the exact same thing last night on Tom's popcorn!!! (only it was cheese seasoning for popcorn) She was just copying him, and looked so very proud. Tom didn't look as proud.

LOL! Looks familiar. I once poured half a jar of garlic into my beans because I thought it had a sprinkle top but it didn't. Oops!
Abby says
Lucky for George that he only poured adobe on his eggs. My daughter poured black pepper in her *eye* a few months back.. oh the screams.. oh the mom guilt.

We love Goya Adobo as a taco meat seasoning but not on eggs.:( However, I suggest you watch that kid…he may just be the next Emeril…BAM!:) Someone, somewhere, someday is gonna love that dish!

Yes, we've have toddlers proudly pepper their eggs in the same way!

This is McGiver with the black pepper shaker. he insists, (through those shudders) that he likes it.

Are you okay from the storms yesterday?

CUTE! 🙂 My sister did that with salt in her cereal…she dumped most of the jar of salt in the bowl, then declared, "I'm done!" Mom, not wanting to waste food (and not knowing about the salt), figured she'd finish it for her and took a bite. Poor mom…she was sick for a few days!
I heard about it after the fact…otherwise I would have tried to stop her from eating it! 🙂
Keep all sorts of shaker bottles out of toddler's reaches!
Suzie says
So, did you try to salvage some of the Adobo for a later dish??
minnesotamom says
Naturally, Suzie! It's going in the rice tonight! 🙂
