Lyric's Grocery List

So, yesterday Devon and I had the HEB sale ad trying to make a menu and grocery list for the week. Lyric came up and decided she needed to have a look to see what she "needed". Her list consisted of: a pineapple, a watermelon, oranges, one apple (red), strawberries and grapes. Yes, she likes fruit.
Later that evening when I went to HEB I picked up everything on her list. So, today we got to cut up the pineapple and the watermelon(it was just a little one). A first for us all. I know! Isn't that sad! Pineapple is one of my favorite fruits, but I have never bought a fresh one because I thought it would be too much trouble to cut up. I never bought watermelon because Devon doesn't like it, I didn't think I liked it and I always thought it would be way too much fruit for just the girls.
The girls were really excited to get started with the cutting. I carried the pineapple to the table and Lyric carried the watermelon. She didn't quite make it to the table. She dropped the watermelon right before she set it on the table. We all had a good laugh about how we wouldn't have to cut it open it was already done. So Story, what did you think of the watermelon? "Double no good!"
And Miss Lyric how about you, did you like the watermelon? "Yuck!"
Now let's cut open the pineapple. Luckily, it came with directions.
Lyric "read" them to me. With a little help from Cadence.

I didn't get any pictures of the tasting but the pineapple got thumbs up from us all! It was so good!

I actually discovered I like watermelon, too. I don't know if it was because it was a little one or if my taste buds are changing, but I really liked it. Maybe I will let Miss Lyric make a grocery list more often.
