Nothing Gold by Rachel Harmon » Veggie Tuna Mommy and Kyra Special

In my favorite poem by Robert Frost, Nothing Gold Can Stay, he reminds us that like the seasons of nature, life is one season melting into another, and quickly fading away. This is my attempt to document each season in my life and my family.

Veggie Tuna Mommy and Kyra Special

Today’s culinary creation was whipped up using whole wheat pasta, tuna, corn, peas, tomato, and mayo. We christened it the “Veggie Tuna Mommy and Kyra Special”. Here’s a picture of the finished product.

Now, I’m sure some of you food snobs are turning up your noses right about now, but Kyra and I aren’t concerned with your disdain. Our lunch was healthy, made with ingredients on hand, and Kyra had a lot of fun helping me mix it up. Besides, we thought it was quite tasty.
Plus, it re-affirmed my newly aquired knowledge that kids will eat almost anything if they get to help make it. Kyra loves to help. She also loves to cook. I love to hear her say, “Thanks, Mommy. It’s yummy.”
