I Want To Learn To Eat Spicy Food
The other day, when I was having a bowl of curry mee, my boy asked if he could take a sip of the curry soup. I was surprised by his request as he would not eat by all means the moment he sensed slighest taste of spiciness in the food. No exceptions..
Ian: Mommy, can I have a sip of the spicy soup? *He got himself a cup of water to stand by before the request*;)
Mommy: Sure. *Though a bit surprised, I obliged to his request, I can see his eyes turn a bit red after the sip*
Ian: It tastes yummy but hot! *quickly gulps down the cup of water on stand by*
Mommy: *evil grins* Do you want another sip?
Ian: No, thanks. Maybe next time.
Mommy: Why did you suddenly want to taste spicy food?
Ian: I want to learn to eat spicy. I saw Aaron (his buddy in school) eating a curry bun and he told me it was yummy.
Mommy: *Nods her head in acknowledgment and takes his boy's kiasu (afraid to lose) attitude positively*. Yeah, boy. I will put some into your mouth everytime I eat spicy food and you learn to eat spicy food slowly, ok, boy?
Ian : Ok, mommy *Giving me a big and cheeky smile*

lol! Your Ian is same like my April. April also cannot take spicy food, a bit also cannot. But my little May can eat spicy food. I hope one day April also is willing to try out a bit of spicy food just like Ian.
