Child. Eat. Your. FOOD!!!!

My name is Miki, and i have 4 younger sisters. Who all have mouths, that like to eat food. They like to eat cheeto's and graham crackers and frozen yogurt and bananas and apples and grapes, and cheese. However, when it comes to actual meals....it's a different story. I mean, why is dinner such a difficult meal to eat?!
okay we got breakfast: "Oh sure i'll put some sugar crap in a bowl and pour some milk in it. Woah, look at that you finished in in lest than 5 mins. Om num num"
Then we got lunch: "Oh look there's ramen, and mac and cheese, it only took two minutes to cook, no big deal. Of Course i'll eat it, no complaints. Om num num."
And now it's dinner time: "(Evil child glaring at properly prepared meal on plate).......(silence).......You spent......45 mins.....cooking THAT!?!?!?! I dont want to eat it!!!!
The only way i can get them to eat their dinner in less than 142 mins, is if i threaten to take away their dessert. Which is usually like an apple or peach or something anyways.
This all leads up to todays conversation between Myself, Kyli, and My Mother.
Mom: I got some chicken nuggets that you can make a dinner out of. They just need something to go with them.
Kyli: Do we have tater tots? That would work. Or french fries or something.
Mom: Well there's some corn here....
Kyli: Yeah that would work well. Miki what goes with chicken nuggets.
Miki: Water.
I win.
Then, as the night went on, and children were leaving the table...another conversation about dinner took place. (Note: I dislike TUNA FISH with all my heart.)
Kyli: Miki, you're going to have to learn how to make Tuna for dinner because it's easy, and your kids are probably going to LOVE it.
Miki: Um....my kids aren't going to be eatting dinner.
And THAT, dear readers, is my opinion on dinner. The most child resistant meal on the planet.
