IC (thanks for clearing that out
): Unfortunately I can't make her learn to cook those foods, difficult child is the one who does most of the cooking in their household. And he does know how to cook all those things already. And if he doesn't, he calls me and asks directions. And girlfriend is already baking him his favourite things (some reason difficult child rarely bakes even though he likes to cook.) Which of course brings me to other point. Someone who bakes his favourite muffins for my baby can't be totally evil, can she? When I look it that way, she does have other good characteristics beside not being a chainsaw murder I guess. LOL
DDD: I have been known to stop by a fast food joint on my way home after a dinner party a time or two, and certainly known to stuff my sons full of food before taking them to any party to avoid them wolfing down all and everything from the table, but admit it aloud? Yikes! That certainly is something. I have to also admit I think I have never eaten baked sweet potato or okra either.
Of course would eat if served (I eat almost anything, there are few things I avoid if any way possible because of the ethical reasons and quite a few more I don't cook myself, but eat if someone serves them to me), but both are rather uncommon around here. In fact I had to check from Wikipedia what okra is and even sweet potatoes have been commonly sold around here just few years (they don't really grow this north at all.) And because we are not adventurous folks, we mainly use them combined with something 100 per cent safe and familiar, so sweet potato casserole it is, when I cook them
But we are more of the potato, rutabaga, carrot, beetroot, parsnip kind of folk when it comes to root vegetables.
