Today's soup was the credit of my daughter. After making radish fish ball soup that day, the little person fell in love with the ball digger. He dug in the kitchen, and also dug out many balls on carrots and water radishes. The bright colors were very pleasant. He used it to match shrimp, quail eggs and two broccoli to cook a colorful soup. The little person held the edge of the bowl and counted the colors in his mouth, and ate a few balls. Soon, the bowl of soup was exhausted. Sometimes letting children walk into the kitchen properly can not only add a lot of joy, but also add a little more food creativity.
