No school today so we took a trip to the Oregon Zoo. This is a fantastic Zoo and if you have not been you should come visit just for the Zoo :) http://www.oregonzoo.org/ Did you know that there is a baby elephant? The picture to the left is Alena and behind her is Sammy (Samundra) the baby elephant. Isn't he cute? In any case, we saw a lot of the baby elephant today, the ice bears, sea lions just great. Since was sunny and not so cold we also rode the train. OK - so what does this have to do with Galactosemia at all? Well nothing so far but as it happens often I did not pack lunch and we had a few snacks with us. We have eaten at the Zoo before but the girls were never able to eat the fries (at the upper restaurant, I am not so crazy about the Cafe). The kids menu includes animal cookies which are not OK, and the only meal that is OK is the hot dog W/O the bun. I am happy to report so that they now have a new recipe and they do not include milk :) So, hot dog, french fries, and Fanta...alright its not the healthy meal we all strive for but once in awhile...To make up for our lunch we are having stir fry with broccoli & carrots for dinner.
