I had my first Eritrean food for dinner tonight. A big plate came out with different soft little hills of food to try and they were all so good except one that was a little too spicy for my mouth! But I still ate that bite, I just drank cold water afterwards.
I did not use a fork or spoon for this delicious food. I tore little pieces of the bread (Daddy helped me make them the right size) and used those little pieces to pick up the food.
I talked to our server about how to make the bread but it sounded like we needed to know more steps to really understand. Mama and I are going to watch a video on how to make the special bread so we can learn more about it. I think I might have dreams about this tasty food!
If I have a dream about this food, that will definitely be better than a dream I had last night where someone gave me 100 balloons and I floated up over a river. It felt dangerous and I did not like it. Every time I tried to go back to sleep this would pop back into my head again and it was past bedtime.
So Mama said I had 3 choices:
1) when someone hands me 100 balloons, just say “no thanks.”
2) take the balloons but don’t land until you’re somewhere soft and safe
3) enjoy the balloon ride, see where you go and enjoy the adventure!
These made me feel better and I went back to sleep!
