One of my goals for 2011 is to uncover Owie and Kevie’s God-given gifts…

Already, I think I may have discovered one for Owen: a very keen taste bud.

In an effort to make our entire family more healthy, I bought a $150 Breville juicer last month and started juicing vegetables…started with carrot juice and apple…as we got used to the taste of raw organic carrot juice, I wanted to add even more vegetables, so 2 weeks ago, I added celery (only 1 stalk) just to try and noticed Owie didn’t drink his juice that morning (he usually eagerly gulps it down). I asked him why he didn’t drink his carrot juice and he answered, “But it is yucky - you added vegetable (tsai tsai) to it.”

Both Xiaohu and I could not taste the difference and I KNEW I added celery to it! Think our little boy may have what it takes to be a Connoisseur…he appears to be the kind that can eat a lot but not gain too much weight so it may just be the perfect job for him.
