It didn't take long for Evelyn to return, she had already changed her clothes into her pajamas in the bathroom and had a bottle of milk for her daughter and a cup of iced tea for herself, she then set/laid down on the bed, sat her daughter on her lap and opened up the Madeline book, soon both mother and daughter read the book together.
I find that humorous because (for me) having creamed spinach for the first time (in my 20s) was the first time I'd ever had spinach that tasted good. 🤣
I was eating at a friend's house whose mother made it specially for my friend's father and I was amazed. I had previously only been exposed to spinach in the public school cafeteria as a limp mush with vinegar and refused to eat it.
Turns out that CS was just a gateway drug for me because I later discovered palak paneer (or saag paneer) at an Indian restaurant buffet and my fate was sealed.
