Well, you are just culinarily boring! Of course you have MJ, whose meals are so excellent that they can just sit there and do NOTHING--like a pretty girl-- and still earn admiration simply by being eaten. HER veggies don't have to sell themselves or be entertaining to get asked out again. BUt the meals in OUR house have to offer more in the way of distraction. They need wonderful SHAPES so that complicated edifices can be constructed as one chews. They must be different so as to at least entice one to take a few bites in the hope that maybe THIS time they will be edible. They must be bizarre and inspire stories about UFOs and the things that grow in dark places. They must involve unique approaches to comsumation-- like chopsticks, or spearing things as they float by in the fondu pot. I used to play a game when Dan was out of town. I took all the leftovers, heated them up in a big pan and sat on the floor letting everyone take a bite at a time. I called it "THe Poor Starving Children's DInner". The kids LOVED it. They ate anything and everything from the poor starving family pot. It worked until they caught on to the concept of cooties.
