ask her what the problem is. she is a girl, she may actually tell you. if it's something daft be firm and take away the toy food for a week or so. if it's something else have a nice talk about it.

I asked her why she won't put the food away. She said her legs and arms and tummy hurt. That is her standard answer when she doesn't want to do anything.
