Angry 8-year-old daughter says:
“There’s never anything I like to eat around here. It’s always, homemade, homemade, homemade…”

    I love it! My kids said the something along the same line yesterday–“sometimes we just want to eat junk food and you won’t buy anything, you always have to make it!”

    Too funny!! I go through the same thing with my middle child – never seems to like anything I make.

    Seems hard to imagine in your house though – your meals looks and sound delish!!

    I remember a similar fit several years ago from ME. We were at the check out line and I looked in the cart my (wiser) wife had filled, at all the bulk bags and vegetables and exclaimed “There’s no FOOD in here!”.

    Of course what I meant is that there was that there was very little to just reach in an eat-no convenience food. What I was doing was looking at a pile of lumber and appliances and saying “There’s no house there!”

    My how I have grown!

    I laughed out loud at this one. Take heart. That was my daughter’s reaction (more or less) when I served her homemade macaroni and cheese. Somewhere along a very short line it became her favorite thing and something she bragged to her friends about.

    That’s hilarious!

    Melissa, I hate to say it, but I think our daughter would eat junk for 24/7 if she could. The food scientists know how to make it taste good.

    Late Bloomer, we do make a lot of great food in our house, and our daughter is always trying to order a la carte. Go figure…

    Amanda, I’m sure you know whereof you speak.

    Rob, I think we all have those junk food jags. Sometimes after eating healthy day-in-day-out, all you want to eat is a bag of chips, a big fat hot dog, some chili cheese fries…
