The Great Experiment



I hope I didn't push it too far today with my diabolical plan. Surprisingly, Ken, the retired science teacher, is not fond of experimentation. And given that he has a cold (which, I apparently gave him) he's cranky. Tonight, we tried a healthier waffle, on a new waffle iron that I've never used before. He was not happy with the resulting waffles. Actually, even when it's food that I've tested out in advance, he always starts off with a statement like "Well, it's different." Only at the end of the meal will he give me a final judgment whether it's good or not.

So, now I know, I absolutely will have to try a food myself before I try it out on him, and it can't be too different. The idea is to get him to eat healthier. I don't have to do that by making him eat exotic foods. I just have to get him to eat healthier, whole foods rather than processed junk. Ok, so it would please me if he would become more adventuresome, but hey, I'll take healthier anytime.

I'll share that waffle recipe tomorrow. I forgot to take a picture, so I'll have to find some stock picture that'll look better than the real thing.
