Easy Mac Chef

Last night Ryan, our five year old was being his usual picky self about evening food. Eventually he broke down and agreed to have Easy Mac. Elizabeth, who doesn't normally do evening food patrol, read the instructions and made it. It turned out very runny and despite additional zapping, was still more like soup. Ryan did eat a little, but commented that Dad makes it better. Now there's a ringing endorsement for my culinary skills. I feel validated as a provider of food. Actually that stuff is disgusting. He had had it at his friends house and he begged and begged for it. I eventually gave in and the first few versions were wolfed down. Now he picks at it. The novelty has worn off. Sorry Kraft, you will have to find some other revolting processed food ideas to tempt him.
