Day 9

I know I usually begin with a little ditty about what I made for dinner tonight. But I just have to exclaim first:

My son ate a green bean tonight!!!


Not only did he eat one green bean tonight, he ate 4 or 5 and he liked it. Whew.

So, dinner tonight consisted of braised Italian sausages, hash brown potatoes made in the waffle iron (see picture below) and cut green beans.

They're really easy to make. Just grate a potato, add a tablespoon of melted butter and a bit of seasoned salt and put it into a hot waffle iron. Yum.

Both kids like sausage and Hannah likes almost anything that has to do with a potato. Asher is expanding his potato repertoire beyond "crispy crowns" from the freezer aisle and fast food french fries. He enjoyed his "waffle fries" tonight. And, as I said, he ate green beans too! Hannah likes almost all green vegetables.

Outcome: Both children got smile stickers tonight.
