The snack corner is open

Its true. Children pick up their eating habits from their parents. In my case, the hubby and I are snackies and so are the children. And in their Ajji's house, they have been having a ball! The first two weeks were restricted by their tummy upset, but have they made up for it over the last few days! The usual delights are chakuli (home made) and mixture, and they each get a bowl which they take into their snack corner- the window ledge behind the sofa and we don't hear a peep from them for the next 5 minutes. S often calls A to come with her behind the sofa and share her bowl of snacks and they look so cute that my dad has named it their snack corener and keeps asking S during the day when the snack corner would be opened.
S was always a snackoholic, and A has also turned into one. We have a ledge next to the dining table, where bottles of mixtures, chips (I have to have khara chips with my sambhar rice!) biscuits etc are kept, and once in a while A will walk upto it and point to one of the snacks and will not relent till some piece is offered in her mouth! Luckily A has also developed a taste for healthier things like palia (vegetables cooked with no gravy, just seasoning) so I try to give her some between her snacks. S is also encouraged towards healthier snacks like apples, cashewnuts etc but what is one expected to do when they see their mom huddled up with a packet of kur kures at 11 pm in the night :)
