omg. seriously. how many times can you listen to that word being spelled out before caving in and making it? Shae learned how to spell ratatouille and was incredibly proud of himself. noisily. over and over. So I told him to search through the cookbooks and find me a recipe. He discovered a Chickpea Ratatouille recipe in Vive Le Vegan! and we got to it. even better, he loovveeeess chickpeas. I honestly had no idea what ratatouille even was, but it was super simple to make so I'm all about that. Shae liked it, minus the "gross" tomatoes, which "should NEVER be cooked", that is. Matt and I thought it was good, but very unimpressive. Eh, whatever. We ate it served over brown rice with broccoli on the side.

Although each of the world's countries would like to dispute this fact, we French know the truth. The best food in the world is made in France. The best food in France is made in Paris, and the best food in Paris, some say, is made by Chef Auguste Gusteau.~
