I hadn't connected my post on Whats For Dinner? with my comments over at Che and Fidels post on making meals with Love but meal planning and the daily struggle that is meeting everyones particular needs and issues must have been on my mind yday. And that particular phrase of "let them get hungry and they will eat" just does not sit well with me. Such bad advice for parents of children who really do have feeding issues but I guess unless you live it you don't know it and I think I have been guilty pre-children of even holding that same opinion and sharing the same well intended advice. Surely they will eat when they are hungry?! Um well no not always! We ended up with Chicken San Chow Bow. Well 2/3 of us did. The 3/3 had plain chicken no sauce nothing touching it and raw carrot and a 'kiss and a lick' of raw celery and raw capsicum all followed up with a peanut butter sandwich chaser. Some nights you just have to give in to the food jags and get something remotely resembling a decent meal into them. Its hard hey! I am grateful we aren't FODMAPS/dairy/nut free the sensory issues and Coeliac is enough to contend with for me. Thanks for your kind words of solidarity and encouragement!

It must be great to physically see it all coming together. And I've become quite fond of those low chain link fences - being able to "borrow" the views from your neighbours automatically doubles the sense of space of your own yard. xxCarolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13606994564887624801noreply@blogger.com
