I've now gotten so far down into the recipe rut that I need some rock climbing gear to get out. With so much information at my fingertips, one would think this impossible. "Search online," I hear you whisper; "Crack open those cookbooks," you think aloud. Alas, those routes have been taken...
I don't think that my children are especially picky. Then again, I've never lived with other small people for a long run of time and paid attention to their likes and dislikes. (Belated apologies to my brother and sister.) My children will eat what is served -- maybe not a lot of it -- but what I'm looking for are rave reviews, a few dishes that everyone loves. A few dishes that don't cut it: baked ziti, lasagne, or anything else drenched in a lot of dairy.
Do you have a recipe you'd be willing to share? E-mail me with your family favorites (using the e-mail address at the left of the blog) and you'll be entered into the very first give-away chez sheepish one. If you're the winner, you may choose one of these three fabulous prizes:
Debbie Bliss Pure Silk in coral (2 skeins)
Scout's Swag Superwash Merino Tencel sock in Hedgehogs.
The Plucky Knitter Worsted Merino in Harvest.

Ok! I'll get right on it!
I'm going to email you now...
Maybe you could share these recipes... I frequently get in to the same rut.
I just sent you a couple - I am always looking for new ideas! The Kraftfoods magazine and website are amazing for ideas.
i want to come over and hang out with you combing those fabulous cookbooks!!!!
of course, we could knit, too!
i'm going to check back. i'm in a rut as well! between seasons maybe.
I get in those ruts too... and I do think it has a lot to do with the seasonal shift. Our foods int he winter are warm and a little heavier - soups, casseroles, etc. but in the spring and summer, they are lighter and filled with fresh veggies. I often go to the market and work my way around the produce section - trying out new vegetables or ones that I haven't tried in a long time.
It is great that your kids aren't too picky. Good luck!
Oh, I hope you share lots of those recipes with us!
Be great to get some new recipes to enjoy with my family too. :)
I'll go through my recipes and send you off some to try.
