Sorry kids, Tuesday isn't "taco night"


Au contraire my petit ones,
this Tuesday it's "Thick as Fog Split Pea Soup" night!

Shall we see how well that went over?











Post script:
On a night like this (or this, or this (-:), I do balance my self-indulgent foodie moments by offering something the kids will eat. Tonight's accompanying dishes were chicken patties, corn bread and sliced apples (quite a combo, eh?). But, I don't pull any punches. I hauled out some left over cake from the freezer for anyone that had at least a spoonful. I'll have you know, one of the children didn't even make gagging noises or shove chicken patty quickly in his mouth after his spoonful!! Success!! (baby steps here folks)

I love the "I'm not eating that". Too funny! Mothers of the world unite!

My kids are weird they actually beg for pea soup, they love it! I love it too! yum! They might get pickier when they get a little older though. I need to film them loving it, so I can show them later to prove it!
