Actually, Rachael Ray has some good suggestions on how to get kids to eat their veggies.
Mashed potatoes were an unmitigated failure last night. Max didn't like them - even though they were the cheesy kind (the kid is mental for cheese). Drew.... well, let's say that there is still probably the remains of dinner crusted somewhere that the bath missed. I know that I spent 15 minutes cleaning them up. He had way too much fun with them. I'd post pictures if I could because they're pretty funny.

Eggs are not a problem, assuming that whatever is cut finely. Max will eat a spinach omlette.
