Well, probably yes.
But all the same. This seems to be a running theme here - DCs' pals come to tea and don't eat their food.
They don't make a fuss as a rule - they are nice kids. They don't even ask for any other food, tho I sometimes offer ("would you like an apple?")
But I serve up, ooh, outre stuff like sausages or pasta with tomato sauce, or obscure veg like leeks, and they get toyed with and left.
It gets a bit depressing, esp when the other week we had 3 pals over (I have 3DC) and out of the 6 kids at the table only mine ate the pasta with bol sauce!
DH says I should serve them frozen chicken nuggets with smiley faces (shudder) and then they'd eat.
I don't even know why it bothers mem except I find myself thinking well, I could have just saved that food for me and DH to eat.
OK obv I am just feeling like a laet-night rant, but does anyone else have this?
