No Octopus .....

I was so excited to use nana Diana's recipe for Emma's lunch. After she carries it to the table , she says" I don't like hot-dogs(octopus)". Well for goodness sake, there went that lunch. I really do not like to fix meals for my grandkids...picky eaters. There mommies sure were not. So Emma ate the mac/cheese and a salad. Then had strawberry yogurt for dessert.... I guess as long as she eats while she is here. You know anything besides peanut  butter and jelly sandwiches. Today she has chopped steak(hambuger shhh). So funny just re-naming things so they will eat. :):) But we have been busy painting birdhouses today.  I am ready for a nice cappachino and piece of cake. LOL Hope you are enjoying your day. xo

  5. My kids were the pickiest eaters when they were little. Now they are teens and can't pack it in fast enough! I give you an "a" for effort.

  6. Too cute! We never had a picky eater because they learned they had to try at least a teaspoon full of whatever was served, then if they didn't care for it they didn't have to eat it. IF they said 'I don't like it' before they taste it, a BIG spoon went on the plate. Never had any issues with that after one mistaken sentence.

    Love the steak ... kids are a trick & a half sometimes aren't they, but you just smile & go on loving them.

    THANK YOU SO MUCH for keeping an eye out for the flower & design print feedsacks. I deeply appreciate this.

    Have a beautiful Father's Day celebration.
