About the only thing we butts heads about is celery - if I had my way I
would put it in everything, and DH hates it in everything except some
soups. He is finicky about preparation, but I have modified my
techniques to satisfy his pickiness (He's an Engineer; he likes
everything done on schedule, and perfectly...Don't ever marry one!!)
Oh, and he hates the way microwave popcorn smells so I make it
downstairs when he is up and upstairs when he is downstairs.

DS (almost 2) loves everything I have tried to feed him except cooked
peppers and carrots. The little guy loves curry (asks for curry sauce
to use as a dip), spicy foods, all veggies, seafood - everything!

I really feel pretty lucky. I don't think I would put up with too much
fussin' about food...
