Mandarin Oranges

Last night as one of the sides for dinner, I made a simple fruit salad. One of the fruits I added, (much to my own dismay), was Mandarin Oranges. Bryan and Sarah love them, and I cannot stand them. But, to be a good wife and mom, I buy them. Sarah kept asking me why I don't like them, and all I could say was, "I just think they taste yucky." So Sarah told me to try one, and I simply replied, "Nope." Then she went in for the kill and added, "But Mommy, you always make me try different foods!" What was I supposed to say to that?! She trapped me! I had no other choice but to eat one because I didn't want to get caught in the ol' do as I say, not as I do dilemma. Although the Mandarin Orange was still yucky to me, I was proud of myself! And I think Sarah was proud of me too! : )
