That's how it is in our house with eating right now. I just don't care. I'm too tired to prepare stuff for everyone. Ds1 eats constantly and is totally omni. Dd is in picky four year old mode; things she loved last year, she now won't touch, and her menu is shrinking. Dh *wants* to be vegan, but he gets into "food moods" so it makes cooking difficult. For example, he says, "I

your refried beans. I could eat them every day." So I make a huge Crockpot of beans, and he has one meal, and the bowl sits in the fridge and now I'm forced to eat them all. (Fortunately my toddler will eat anything, but beans just wreak havoc on his belly, even though I soak and sprout them before cooking.) Or, he'll eat take-out pizza for a week.

At this point, I'm mostly just grabbing things I don't need to cook and shoving them in my mouth. It's disheartening. I just hate eating at this point. It's too much of a chore.

So, starting tomorrow, I need to get back into making some fabulous meals for me. I have a ton pinned on Pinterest. I just need the energy and motivation.

Someone be motivated with me?
