Anko Yukk!
Our friend, Peggy was nice enough to bring some Manju when she came to sit with Satomi yesterday.
For those that don’t know, it’s a traditional Japanese confectionary that typically stuffed with sweetened beans of various types. It is quite popular. Here’s a picture of a typical box.
Unfortunately, Satomi HATES azuki (black) beans and well, just about every other sort of bean out there. Except for maybe edamame (soy beans). So I dug throught the box and found one filled with a white bean of some sort.
Anyway, I decided to give her a small piece this morning just as a treat and a small change from the normal routine.
I was feeding her, alternating spoonfuls of miso soup, brown rice, some Korean seafood salad, juice, soup, rice, salad, and then I swapped in a bite of the manju….
“Anko Yukk!”
Eating quickly stopped and drinking water started. There’s no getting anything past her.
It was hilarious.
