This is how I found Charlotte's food bowl after breakfast this morning. Notice how she ever so neatly removed all the shredded yams from her chop and placed them all to the side. I guess those aren't her favorite. :D

(Also, please forgive the morning poops. I clean cages right after breakfast.)

Hahahahaha! Yeah, it's funny when they get so deliberate about it. So like children in that way.

Yeah, well, she's going to have to just put up with the icky orange stuff. I'm cooking for four birds and I am not a short order cook! Lol. The other birds like the yams. That was actually the first veggie I got Goofy to eat (other than broccoli, which was the only veggie he ate for most of his life).

I used to do that when I was a kid and my grandmother put liver in the chili.
You go, Charlotte!

that is hysterical. They are chopped so finely too :p

My Cuissinart food processor is the best $100 I've ever spent.

I can't talk much. I'm the world's pickiest eater. Some of that's due to life threatening allergies and some of it is just stuff I don't like. Last night I accidentally ordered a chicken and veggie dish that had green beans in it. Those all got pushed to the side, since I'm a big fan of being able to breathe (I've never had anything more than extremely minor symptoms to green beans, but since I've had a few allergies go from barely noticeable to life threatening in a very short time, I don't like to push my luck). Leo took care of the green bean problem for me though.
