When we were small, our mothers dreaded those whiny-voiced questions at dinner time that made them want to throw the table over and stomp out of the room. You know the questions, because you asked them yourself: "What is that GREEN thing in my food?", "Why can't we just eat cake for dinner?", and "Do I HAVE to eat that?".
Our mothers, thankfully, didn't ever throw the table over. Though they may have stomped from the kitchen a few times, they generally responded to our complaints with a calm, "Just take a courtesy bite." This meant we were to take one bite of the food, to be polite. On occasion, we would realize we actually LIKED the food, but regardless, it was a great policy.
We created this blog because we want to share with you some of our favorite ideas for cooking, gardening, spending time with your kids, and whatever else tickles our fancy. We hope that you will "just take a courtesy bite" and see if these ideas are something that can bless your life. If so, great, and if not, hey, your mama will be proud of you for trying!
