Junk food... it's my favourite

I had cravings for McDonald's fillet-o-fish burger for some weeks now but never got the chance to eat one. But last night, hubby surprised me by coming home early for dinner at 7pm, then we spent some family time together, while planning to go out for supper later.

The weather was wet, y'know, the kind of rain that never stops but just drag on. But I loved it (reminds me of a late autumn day in UK).

We have never brought Victoria to McD's before, and I don't intend to introduce fast food or junk food to her until age 5 if I can help it. The closest she got to fast food is A&W's waffle and onion rings, and yes, KFC twice (becoz her kindy had it). So whatever we were planning to eat, Victoria wanted too, so we offered french fries to her.

On the trip out, hubby and Victoria dropped by Petronas to withdraw some moolah ($$) and bought a packet of Mamee too, while I stayed in the car with William. I dunno who wanted the Mamee more ;) but in the car Victoria said it's for me and quickly asked me to open it to share it with her.

No thanks, I said. Hhmm... no way and no amount of pestering, I thought, am I gonna let her eat that.

Why, she asked.

I explained that it's junk food. And that these kinda food is not good for her.

Back at home, while digging into our supper, hubby asked for the Mamee packet. So now I know he wants to eat it too.

Victoria told me, after we agreed to let her eat just a liltttttleee bit of Mamee (without the seasoning), that "I loveeeee junk food, mummy. This is my faavvvvoouuurritteee." She had to emphasized on those words. Of course, I hear only la.

Apparently she's tasted Mamee before because a girl in kindy offered it to her. Sigh, so much for my efforts to abstain her from junk food.
