Picky eaters vent
We have 4 kids together (one mine, three his). They are amazing and I love them, but I am fighting so hard with food routine of his two youngest girls. Girls are 9 and 7. The older one changes her preferences every weekend - one weekend no meat, next weeked no tomato sauce, next weekend no cheese (but next time she will eat some of these). The younger one eats only dry pasta, dry rice and dry pastry. So I plan what to cook for every weekend when they are with us, but it's getting harder and harder. Sometimes I am cooking whole weekend and they don't eat a s*it. Today it was the last straw. We went on some trip and we were in the market in the morning - each kid was asked to plan their food for the whole day. I ended up with frying fu*in' croquettes on a gas travel cooker, because it was the only food which they wanted to eat today. Things gone wild, kids were running around and the cooker with hot oil fell on my leg. I have burned feet and they didn't ate anything again. I hate this so much, but I don't know how to handle this. I don't want to do this anymore, it's never ending story. Their father (my BF) is very caring and great guy and great father, but he doesn't cook (he does a lot of work with his hands).
