Lima Beans?
Oliver has gone through phases of eating different foods. He started off eating hummus, which he now doesn’t like… a texture thing perhaps? Now Oliver is into a lima bean phase. I don’t know when, if ever, I ate lima beans as a kid. (Hey Mom, do you want to weigh in on this?) I would have never thought to feed Oliver lima beans, except I happened to buy a bag of frozen mixed vegetables. I bought it for the carrots, green beans, and peas – all acceptable to Oliver right now – and never noticed the inclusion of the baby lima beans. He’s crazy about them. Last night baby lima beans were the foundation of dinner.
I’m sure my Irish grandmother would have never supposed that her daughter would grow up to eat sushi and Indian food. Oliver does like garlic naan, by the way – but then, who doesn’t? Lima beans are not nearly as exotic, just not what I would suppose a 12 month old would choose for dinner!
