Spicing it Up!

I cook and eat a lot of chicken.  It's even a joke with one of my friends.  Whatever!  It's easy!  And dependable!  And versatile!  And also a little bland... 

Yes, I like bland food.  Seriously.  Like I would fit right in in Great Britain where food has zero taste. 

Well, George must take after his father... because last week he tried enchiladas.  I was worried that he might not like it, but he kept reaching for my fork, so I gave him a bite!  I seriously couldn't shovel it into his mouth fast enough!  He loves enchiladas!

So my discovery is that maybe I need to spice up some of George's food.  Maybe (sometimes) the problem isn't my picky toddler... but my bland food.  So I'm working on spicing things up.

In other news:  Our "throwing food on the floor" problem has been temporarily solved.  George just doesn't like to feed himself--especially if he doesn't know if he's going to like it.  So, when introducing new foods (or if he starts throwing), I feed him... and he usually eats it up!  We still have a sippy-cup-throwing problem.  More on that when I figure out how to get him to drink it more than once before throwing it.
