Food Pyramid


I am not sure about other households, but we seem to use a lot of food coloring around here. I'm convinced it's part of the food pyramid. Maybe it's for lack of imagination when it comes to cooking on my part, or maybe it's just that my kids think everything tastes better if it's a crazy color. The only time this was not a hit was when we tried it on oatmeal. But I think I'm blaming the fact that they don't like oatmeal for that one.



They love pancakes. I love that I don't have to put much thought into pancakes. We have pancakes a lot when their daddy is working late. I am getting to the point where I may have to start doubling the batch though, because Jericho can eat about 4 pancakes by himself. I'm genuinely terrified for when he's 16.



As you can see, he generally doesn't care what color his food is as long as their is a lot of it. Green pancakes are hilarious, obviously.

You did well with the pancakes and food coloring! I make green ones for Christmas morning and never seem to put enough color in them. Once I cook them golden brown, you can't even tell what color they were supposed to be!
