My kids wouldn't eat broccoli until I started calling it dinosaur trees, and now they eat it up, especially my almost 2 year old.

Couscous is an eastern side dish, and I can only say that it's like rice, kind-of, or really tiny pasta, but it's really good!!! DH means dear husband, and you both need to get over your leftovers thing because leftovers are the BEST! Plus they're free!

okay, what are couscous? What does DH stand for? And, I totally understand Josh about the leftovers for lunch thing. I will only eat a select few myself. For example, burritos, pizza, hmmm... that might be it! - Holly A.
