My Kind of Salad

One of my mothering mistakes was not introducing raw vegetables into my boys' live earlier and so......they will not touch a salad now......not even with lots of dressing. They will eat lettuce and tomato on tacos and sandwiches with some reminders of it being good for them but salad? No way. I was extolling the virtues of salad again yesterday and Stephen piped up, "I think I know a salad I would like." I said "tell me about this salad that you would like."  "Oh," he replied, "you start with melty chocolate and add M&M's, mix that up and put a lollypop on the top and you have a candy salad. I would love it!" So would I son, so would I.

And look.......someone else had the same idea! They just forgot the lollypop!

Sounds like a fun salad for a party! I'll have to keep this in mind for the baby shower I'll be hosting next month!

It sounds good, and looks good, but it makes my teeth hurt just thinking about it. :)

Blake is not a salad eater either. He does like croutons though. I guess that's a start. :-)
