I knew before anyone asked what was for dinner there would be complaints, whining, protests, pickets, and boycotts. Lentil burgers were on the menu for last night's supper. I've gotten really good at debating and negotiating since having children. I had a plan even before the table was set. Eat your lentil burger. Cover it with ketchup, I don't care, just eat it and you can play with the rest of your food. !?! A whole pallet of fruit for the construction of fruit people! It went over fairly smoothly, I must say. We ate that entire plate except for a portion of the grapes. Success.
That looks good my kids would love that. I have past on the Trendy Blog Award to you!

ReplyDeleteThis may be a silly question...but what are the little orange things? Looks delicious though :D
ReplyDelete@ Bec--Those are kumquats--a small citrus fruit that you eat whole. The skin is the sweet part and the inside makes you pucker! Look for them the next time you're at the grocery store!
ReplyDeleteCan I come over for dinner? I promise not to complain, actually, I will do the opposite!
