Carrot Pie

Last Thursday, Ethan's mate came over after school.
They asked if they could make carrot pie.
Ethan has a recipe.
I don't think so.
Convinced them we could make strawberry milkshakes instead.

On Friday, Ethan wanted carrot pie for dinner.
We made pizza instead.

On Saturday, we went to pick up Scott from the airport.
Ethan thought it would be a great idea to make Daddy some carrot pie for dinner.
He fell asleep on the way home.

On Sunday, Ethan and I baked cookies. 
Double chocolate chip cookies.
Ethan, however, wanted to make carrot pie.
The cookies were a good distraction.

Yesterday Ethan forgot about carrot pie.
I thought we were safe.
I was wrong.

Today, Ethan insists on carrot pie.
I've managed to stall until tomorrow.
Tomorrow, I will think of another distraction.

Why? you ask
Why won't I make Ethan carrot pie?
It does sound healthy after all.
Right?
Wrong!

Carrot pie is Ethan's invention.
Here are the ingredients:
milk
eggs
carrots
pineapple
apples

According to Ethan, this is how we make carrot pie.
Crack the eggs.
Mix it with milk.
Put in the chopped carrots and apples.
Cut pineapple in half.
Pour milk/egg/carrot/apple mixture into pineapple.
Put it in the oven.

This is carrot pie!
If you want to try it, please do!
We, however, shall find something else to make.....

I don't think I will be trying that one. lol. He sure is inventive. I will give him that.
Would he be happy with a carrot craft? I saw a neat one that involved hiding candy and small toys in homemade carrots. You take orange crepe paper and wrap it up in a long carrot shaped roll. Add goodies as you roll it up.
