Goodness me I really need to get onto the laminated whiteboard trick too! Excellent advice to write up a list of ‘acceptable family meals’ as the grizzle when something is not to taste is endlessly grating.

And the song titles Kellie! Every time you’ve put up one recently, it shifts me to another time and place – today’s took me back to high school & jazz ballet classes… crazy stuff ;D

I plan to put it up somewhere, too, Tasha, so everyone can see it. I’ve got to make it a habit, that’s what lets me down! Got to start somewhere though!

We’re *huge* fans of the Jamie cookbooks too, Kellie. A lot of our meals come from them – or have been adapted from them.

I’ve done something similar to you and have made a master list of the family favourites, which definitely makes deciding what’s for dinner a lot easier.
I’ve even gone one step further and have a white-board on the fridge where I *publish* the weeks menu – helps with the home-from-school question of “What’s for dinner tonight, Mum?”

On the whole, it works swimmingly, but there was obviously something in the air the other week, because I went on strike too!

PS Didn’t know about Food Revolution Day – thanks for the heads up!
