Once upon a time there was a girl named Lena, and more than anything else in the world she loved... to eat! From morning till evening Lena was ready to try everything that could be found on the table. - Lena, come to breakfast! - called mom. - I'm already running! - Lena answered and rushed to the kitchen, where she was waiting for fragrant pancakes with jam and warm milk. After breakfast, Lena didn't have time to sit idle for long. She looked in the refrigerator and thoughtfully asked: - Maybe I'll have an apple? Or a piece of cheese? And then came lunch - soup, mashed potatoes with a cutlet and, of course, compote with cookies. Lena ate everything with pleasure and always said: - Mommy, you cook like a magician! But Lena's favorite time was in the evening. After dinner, mom and dad would let Lena have a “dessert tea party”. The girl would sit down at the table with a cup of tea and a big plate of cakes. - Lenochka, and you are not afraid that you will become too big from all these delicious things? - sometimes daddy would joke. - No! - Lena answered. - I'll just become the happiest person! But one day it happened that Lena's tummy suddenly got sick. The doctor said it was because the girl ate too many sweets and forgot about healthy fruits and vegetables. - Lena, food is great, but you need to eat right to be healthy and energetic, - said the doctor with a smile. From then on, Lena became a real little connoisseur of healthy eating. Now she loved not only cakes, but also salads, porridge and fresh fruit. And you know what? She was still the happiest person in the world - because food continued to bring her joy, only now without the pain in her stomach!
