Blueberries: Possibly The Most Stinkeroo Food Of All Time

Yesterday afternoon while Uncle Brent and Auntie Karen visited (and kept the boys good and entertained!) I got busy in the kitchen whipping up a batch of blueberries. I was disappointed that the big bag of berries only yielded 8 servings, but in hindsight I guess I should be relieved.

This is Nate experiencing blueberries for the first time today:

Don't mistake his wide-eyed look for anything but total shock that I have just fed him something so awful.

This was the beginning of the revolt: 

But it got worse. Much worse. No pics obviously since I was too busy with my own shocked look when Nate actually gagged on said blueberries – and trust me, it wasn't because he had too much in his mouth (although if you ask Nate he would tell you that any amount of blueberries is too much blueberries). He really hated them.

And then there was Seth. This is his first reaction: 

Followed quickly by this: 

Does this kid give the best stink-face, or what?

So yeah, that sums up our attempt at blueberries. I think I'll keep the rest on ice for now and maybe try applesauce tomorrow (don't worry, I didn't slave over the stove for that – I went strictly store-bought so the odds of it being well-received are in my favor).

In the end, Nate did discover a purpose for the evil berries after all: 

They're fun to play with at least.

Otherwise, verdict is: SUPER-STINKEROO.
