Our Little Chef Is At It Again

Here he is, the next Iron Chef in action, making macaroni and cheese. It’s our quick version of macaroni and cheese, mixing shredded cheese in hot macaroni. Hey at least it’s not from one of those little boxes.

Chef In Shades

We recently got a bunch of apples from a local orchard and then wondered what we were going to do with all of them.  They were just a tiny bit tart and would have sat around a long time waiting to get eaten.

So we decided to bake some apple crisp.  Keep in mind, neither one of us likes cooking all that much.  We also don’t like decorating, home improvement projects, gardening or fashion.  So if anyone wants our gay cards, let us know and we’ll send them out right away.

Darius has been asking to help cook lately, so we enlisted his help in the preparation of the apples.  He was supposed to cut them in small chunks with that butter knife, but all the cool chefs stir, they don’t cut.  We’re kind of hoping that letting him help cook might widen his tastes a little bit, he’s the pickiest kid on the planet.  You can count the number of foods he willingly eats on one hand.  He didn’t even try the apple crisp, and he usually like fruit.

Who else has a very picky child?  Got any secrets for getting them to eat new things?
