Sometimes I get stuck in a rut with the kids and food. You know - buying the same prepackaged snacks at the store, making the same sandwiches for lunches, yada yada yada.
But today I bought the Magic Kitchen Cookbook at the book fair at the school and I have a plan...
Each week, each child gets to pick one thing to make with me out of the cookbook. That way, they have a say in what they want to make and I get to spend some quality time with them in the kitchen, teaching them all of those important kitcheny things! And we hopefully get out of the Goldfish Popcorn Puffs rut that we've been in forever!

This looks very fun, and is a great idea. Please post pictures and stories about the recipes you (they) choose!
Great idea; I know Ashlyn will especially enjoy looking through the Disney Cookbook to find something fun to cook. Remember when I let all of you choose what to eat one night a week and when it was your night you loved it but you weren't allowed to "complain" on the other sister's night no matter if it was "meatloaf"!! It truly is a great help when planning what to cook for dinner. I wish I could use the same idea on Dad.....every week before I go to the store I ask him what he would like for dinner and his answer is always, "I don't care". But.....let me try a new recipe and you know what happens!!! Anyway, have fun and "happy eating"!!
Love,
Mom
I saw that at Target last night and almost picked it up. Let us know how it goes!
