The Eating of the Vegetables (Mom scores on the Point Board)

That's right. I just finished a meal with my girls and watched them eat broccoli and zucchini squash and then ask for MORE! Ok, so maybe they didn't know what they were eating, but it was great. My friend is sharing a book with me, Deceptively Delicious. It's all about hiding the vegetables in meals but still offering them regular veggies. I pureed a zucchini and cut up the broccoli (I still wanted them to see something) and put it in a family sized container of Mac and Cheese (Then I can give the girls leftover Mac and Cheese.) Mom scores one on the point board. The girls of course have been racking up points all morning, but we don't have to mention that point, do we. (Messing up Mommy's bed, spreading the hair clips everywhere, couch cushions thrown, caught Meredith just before she was about to cut up a book with sissors. The sissors were put away, but Emily took them and I've been looking everywhere for them. I still don't know where she put them, but I have them back.) Yea! for vegetables. Note to self though, it's just a trifle to much vegetables and next time I think I'll do a little less zucchini squash. Maybe only half.
