Little son was keen to try what he'd seen in the story - it might help River too?<br />http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Oliver%27s+fruit+salad&x=11&y=20VintageVickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16468973681066716805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940831973818829495.post-22297182591764463912010-02-10T22:27:37.937-08:002010-02-10T22:27:37.937-08:00hahaha.....well done mummy!!! :)hahaha.....well done mummy!!! :)Josie-Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02433168852596727326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940831973818829495.post-25489737181162170762010-02-10T16:09:44.894-08:002010-02-10T16:09:44.894-08:00Oooooo you are GOOD!

See...I can be sneaky too :) <br /><br />River even looks bigger than he did in December! Wow He is growing! Where does the time go! This might be a stupid question but (that has never stopped me before) February 14th here is Valentine's Day...Is it there? I am guessing no but...just checking :) <br /><br />Take care Karen!Libbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04707633636581398829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940831973818829495.post-89138524579647046762010-02-10T13:12:45.350-08:002010-02-10T13:12:45.350-08:00Hi Karen,

Things like that. As they get older, it gets harder, they are getting suspicious on me. Hope your chickens are doing well, mine are just starting to lay again. Oh how I missed those eggs!<br />KAteAuntie Cakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16360461982253858105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940831973818829495.post-16710345627568729432010-02-10T12:49:35.643-08:002010-02-10T12:49:35.643-08:00Smoothies.

They know it's a banana, you just cut it up into 12 circles and two hands and make it up around the plate.<br /><br />I know people put lots of veg into spag bol without children noticing. There is also the issue of texture. Sometimes it's the texture that children hate, so if you cook them differently or serve them raw they sometimes taste better.Flosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18098894367955345944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940831973818829495.post-25253555347499045512010-02-10T12:00:55.083-08:002010-02-10T12:00:55.083-08:00I like Vintage Vicki's idea and we do this a l...I like Vintage Vicki's idea and we do this a little with our 8 yr old, our 3 yr old loves vegetables but the 8 year old, flip she is fickle.

So here it goes the recipe for the Alien's macaroni cheese (Alien because the sauce becomes green because of the green vegetables)<br />Make a normal cheese sauce with butter, flour, milk and cheese and cook some vegetables, anything really, like carrots, peas, broccoli, french beans, sweetcorn, couli flower, anything you think will fit. when they are cooked, whizz them in a blender with the sauce. cook some macaroni (or any pasta really) and pour over or mix the sauce with the pasta. If he likes chicken, you could put some in the cheese/beg sauce too. It is Joey's favourite dish, and I am always sure that he is having his veg in a way that there is no tears or stress.<br />Let me know how it goes if you decide to have a go.<br />xxTinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13621965766127311539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5940831973818829495.post-58365415123327397362010-02-10T10:11:59.487-08:002010-02-10T10:11:59.487-08:00How about smoothies?
