you don't know they don't like it, until THEY try it

i just read an interview article with tom colicchio on babble. the interviewer asked him how he fed his own children. my favorite line from him is the title of this post. you, as a parent, may not like tomatoes. your kid, however, may love them. the best thing i did when i found out i was pregnant and when hendrix started on solids, was re-try all of the food i thought i hated. these foods, which i now love, include tomatoes, blueberries, peas, brussel sprouts and peaches. babble also had a great article with some recipes that look great for adults, as well as, kids. i will for sure be making the beet hummus and the white house granola bars. another great resource for parents trying to get a meal on the table is the blog, dinner a love story. check these out and make something new for kids. you never know (and they never know) until you try.
