In my family, someone (usually James, but sometimes the teenager) will
say "Can we have this every day?"

Latest every-day requests were for my stroganoff.

Because I tried out clipped recipes before typing them, our family
endorsement was an enthusiastic "Type it!"

We're a combo of these two: I will try recipes from all sources, adjusting
them according to family tastes (if necessary). If it's a success, the
daughter-units will enthusiastically ask for it again. If it's a huge
success, Daughter-unit Alpha will ask if she can type it up and send it off
to Clan Ranger. Daughter-unit Beta is much more simple: she'll expect us to
invite everyone over to "share the wealth." (My extended Clan's tastes are
often not as cosmopolitan as my immediate family so some dishes flop at
first. e.g.: Mushroom Medley with Tofu Soup.)

Sounds like fun. :-) I'll have to dig it out of the archives!

And yes, kids are good judges. I'll have to cook for the nephews more
often now that they are getting older.

Sis' liked the citrus tarragon roasted chicken recipe I posted recently.
