Eating Olives

We went to my pilates instructor's housewarming party today. She stays just a couple of minutes away from us so it was quite convenient. L had set up different stations around the house for the guests to keep themselves busy. At one of the stations, she had put out different vegetables for us to make little animals. So with some mushrooms and olives and a couple of toothpicks, you could make, say, a panda.

K wanted to have a go, but while he was trying to make something, E grabbed a raw button mushroom to stuff into her mouth. We had to move fairly fast to remove it from her hand. In an attempt to distract her from the mushroom, I thought I'd give her an olive, thinking that she'd hate the taste of it! Wrong. She was quite pleased with the olives and wanted a few more. Her tea-time snack.
