Ha, ha! That's the trick. Don't put it down in front of them. Make youself a nice plate and then sit down some where nice to relax and eat it. If it's anything like my house, you'll have three little girls swarming like flies saying, "May I have some?" "Have some?" and "Ummmm?"
Oh, how true that is! It actually worked today at lunch when we had whole wheat spaghetti with homemade pesto. I didn't even serve it to the girls, but they saw it on our plates and requested it for themselves. I guarantee that if I put it on their plates first, lunch would have been a sad affair.
When my daughter was 2 and 3, she'd eat anything. Indian food, Thai food, any veggie, any sauce. Now she's 9 and only wants chicken fingers and pizza! I am still trying to figure out what happened.
I told my 3 year old the other day we were having Sweet Potatoes for dinner, he was all excited...you should have seen his face when I put the plate in front of him with grilled (not baked and covered in mini marshmallows) sweet potatoes. He told me I was a lier and cried!
Lol
I'll be back by! Your blog is so beautiful...I love the colors and the classy clean look!
