#refined palate

Elijah gives both his mothers Hanukkah presents.  Don’t worry, we’ll be doing Winterfest with the Jangs in a few days.  

Billie and Elijah enjoy the holiday lights.  However, since Billie has never baked before, Elijah does not enjoy the cookie due to having a refined palate.  He says nothing to Billie because he knows she spent all morning baking,  Also, his mothers taught him to be polite and he doesn’t want to ruin Billie’s first Hanukkah.  So he suffers an upset stomach in silence.
