Or even the world’s second best cook.
Really, the world screams “uncle” when I cook.
Aware of my
I watch what the boys have for snacks.
I pack healthy lunches.
I do what I can.
The boys like all those little packets of drink mix that you add to water bottles. As a treat once in awhile we choose a flavor…peach tea, pink lemonade, grape, etc. and shake, shake, shake for fun.
I was happy to find pink lemonade with added protein that the boys drink with gusto. A little extra protein mid-morning seems to help dispositions.
I then found a drink with a full serving of vegetables! Be still my malnourished heart. What could be better than that? The boys are always a little light on the vegetables.
So we added it to the water.
We stirred.
And stirred.
And stirred.
It tastes as bad as it looks.
Using a goldfish glass might have been a little pond-water foreshadowing…
Ugh! That’s hilarious!!!!
I have to say that looks a bit yucky.
oh dear…..oh, d–d–dd–ddear-dear. (piglet)
(shameless plug ahead, fast forward if you need)
my son, who is autistic, used to hate vegetables. texture issues mostly.
for the last few months we’ve been taking a whole food supplement called Juice Plus+, which is a capsule containing the most nutrient rich fruits and vegeatables.
now that he takes that, he literally begs for veggies. we will be in the produce section, and he’ll yell out, “mom, look! brussel sprouts! you HAVE to let me get some!” i kid you not!
they also have Juice Plus+ gummies for the kids. it has all the same stuff as the capsule, but in an easier-for-the-kids-to-handle form.
i sell it. it rocks. i’ve personally lost over 30 pounds so far, and now willingly eat veggies and fruits myself. 🙂
(shameless plug is now over…)
seriously though, that goldfish glass has been violated! 🙂
Well so much for thinking about asking you what this wonderful veggie in a packet was all about. That looks positively awful!
If you only have healthy stuff available, the kids eat healthy things. Mine love any raw fruit and some raw veggies. We rarely have chips, cookies, etc around.
I GOTTA try that in kindergarten. no shit.
did they really ask for real veggies? really. cuz if they did i am buying that drink mix.
Hi Holly, Thank you for visiting my post on blogs! I love your pictures here:) And I did only post part of my results chart. I have been blogging awhile but only since I started doing what I am have I increased it. Live and Learn! I must say I prefer my veggies the old fashioned way!
It’s pretty hard to imagine that it could taste THAT BAD becuase i looks THAT BAD!
KEEP BELIEVING
That REALLY doesn’t look good. Potluck material?
