Peas are a luxury....

.... in a house where everyone is so darn picky! Me- I was raised to eat whatever was on my plate, and all of it. This could quite possibly be why I am so overweight, but I learned to like pretty much everything. My husband, however, is SO gosh darn picky! Basically his diet consists of meat, potatoes, and junk food. The only vegetable he will eat is corn!

Today lunch was macaroni and cheese with hotdogs (cut up in the macaroni).... which I did NOT want. I want vegetables! I often do not buy vegetables for myself because it just isn't very cost effective. I do try to get the boys to eat vegetables, but it becomes such a power struggle! They also know Dad won't eat it, so why should they? Well, anyway... I managed to buy some steamfresh vegetables on sale and I got to eat PEAS with macaroni and cheese! YUM! Now if only I could get the boys to agree...

I am SO glad you found my blog, http://raisingmy5sons.com and sent me a message! It sounds like we have a lot in common! How old are your little ones? Wow, so the 6th was a girl huh? Everyone keeps telling us the 6th will be a girl if we just try one more time, but to be honest I'm thinking what the heck would I do with a GIRL!? lol Plus, my neighbors have 6 boys!
Again, thanks for stopping by! I hope to keep in touch. :)
