The other day Oliver absolutely refused to eat what we had for dinner…why…no, not the usual reasons, this time it was because I had said we were having something else and he was expecting something else…yes he is only 6! And that is when I came up with the menu idea. I said what if you knew what you were going to have every night…would you eat it? He said that he would.
So we sat down together and wrote it all out. He put down all of his favourite foods and I put down all of mine. Together we made remarkable compromises and came up with a weekly menu that any restaurant would be proud of. So know we all know where we are. He comes home from school asking what’s on the menu tonight mum and because he has been involved in the creation of his meals he doesn’t complain or whinge or bicker. He just gets on and eats it!
