Reading:

Older little sister doesn't eat peanut butter. Why does she not eat peanut butter? Because when she was 3 years old she ate a peanut butter sandwich and got sick. Her throat and mouth swelled and she also threw up for a whole day. Doctor says she should not eat food with peanuts in it.

In winter when the temperature is cold, older little sister often drank hot coffee. Her coffee has in it a lot of sugar and milk. She likes to put in 4 teaspoon of sugar. Her coffee is very sweet. In the summer when it is hot, she drinks apple or orange juice in the morning. Her apple and orange juice also have sugar added to them. Summer mornings older little sister will also eat eggs.

Each morning, she eats two boiled (in water) eggs. She put a little salt and sesame oil on the eggs.

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday little older sis eats tomato and cheese sandwich and drinks chicken noodle soup for lunch.

Thursday and Friday she eats Chinese food for lunch. She like to eat chicken dumplings or egg, corn and sausage stir-fried rice. Older little sis uses fork and spoon to eat because she doesn't use chopstick well.
