Eat your peas please

Mom Wilson and I got creative for lunch one day. We saw these recipes in the Family Fun magazine and had fun attempting to duplicate them.
The one that looks like fish sticks and peas with ketchup is actually wafer cookies covered in peanut butter and rolled in cornflakes, with taffy rolled into tiny circles for the peas and jam for the ketchup.
Of course they wanted to eat the frog apple first, but we said the needed to eat thier "healthy food" first. (okay, i won't debate about fish sticks and peas being totally worse than apples and peanut butter right now!!) They were bummed but took a bite anyway. It was fun to watch the look on thier faces as they bit into a "fish stick" and getting something totally different, a really yummy treat! (now the really cool part was they couldn't actually finish the fish sticks and peas due to the sweet-ness, but they loved the apple and p.b , asking for seconds!)

LOL, that's too funny. I have to say I was shocked to see "fish sticks" on your kids' plates...then my second thought was, my kids would need way more than that! LOL
