This post started out as an attempt to introduce a wider variety of cuisine to my 9-year-old. I created this printable for us to use but I’d love to share it with you! I plan to keep the pages in a binder or if I’m feeling super fancy one of these days, I might print a book of blank pages at the office store. Either way—it’s meant to be fun and not a chore!

Born and raised South Texan who has explored living in other states but there is no place like home. She loves being in the "room where it happens" and carries many different titles: mama to a bubbling boy and girly girl, wife to an associate pastor, communications consultant, and a variety of mis pronunciations of her name {Honest- Asia}. Mostly found with a large unsweet tea or iced Americano in hand at The Pearl, Yanaguana at the Hemisfair, side lines of games in Floresville, or exploring the trails of the San Antonio river.
