Dinner time blues.

I know I've said it before...but I'll say again; dinner time in my house is a dickhead.

First you have to take into account lactose intolerance (❌πŸ„) then no mixed textures (❌🍜), 2 out of three of my children need their food separating up, one needs it chopping into absolutely teency weency pieces...meat can't be chewy, veg can't be πŸ—πŸ–πŸŒ½πŸ†crunchy....after I've taken all these things into account and still managed to dish us all up the same meal every night....(not that I make the same meal every night, I just haven't given in to making separate ones just yet.)....and I bring it to the table feeling quite smug...coz it unbelievably still looks tasty....the whining commences....food....FOOD?! You have the audacity to serve me up food woman; My daughter is just not a fan...and it's through no fault of her own....BUT then the boy listens to the whining and absorbs it like the little sponge he is, and joins in coz his big sister is just so cool....and my darling husband is trying to reason with my daughter about being rude about her dinner but she doesn't get it (because she's her...she's not trying to be rude...food is just difficult for her she has sensory issues...and foods always been a problem....)but when you're just sitting there with your stepford wife smile painted across your face dying inside that dinner time really IS such a joyous occasion in your house and your son suddenly gets over excited about something and his arms are flailing in the air (again he can't help it poor body control is part of his condition) and his dinner goes flying through the air.....and mayonnaise is all over the carpet....and they're STILL whining about the poxy dinner you lovingly prepared... and you are ever so tempted to shout 'you ungrateful little bastards!' at them but that would be wrong...and they can't help it....so instead....you just smile sweetly...clean everything up and contemplate boiling your head.....in WINE!!!!!
