As I read this article I got the sense that this writer knows everything about parenting, children, cooking, and how to combine all three. Idealistic?...uh yea! If you can get your kids to see veggies and desire them for the taste, color, and texture, then you're amazing, just don't expect us all to be so great. When all else fails, then zucchinni brownies it is...wink, wink. Their health will forgive and thank me later.
