All right, so the eggplant parmesan was not a success

Fiona managed to get down one mouthful by holding her nose. Delia managed a tiny bite, but it seemed in imminent danger of coming back up.

It will not reappear on the menu.

Have finished critique of The Hallowed Hunt and am e-mailing it to Lois tonight.

Wow, am I glad I cook for adults. For the time being, at least....

On Eggplan parmesan ---

I used to be able to serve this dish about once month when my girls got to be about 8 and 12. The trick for me was to be sure to find a very small eggplant or two and to slice them very, very thin with the food processor and use lots and lots of sauce with lots of garlic and onion and cheese on top so that it kind of tasted more like tomato/marinara sauce with some eggplant in it and the eggplant flavor was almost gone. It was hard to tell the eggplant from the onions too . See, I don't particularly like the taste of eggplant either. LOL. ( I even considered peeling the eggplant to further disguise it as the peels were often left on everyone's plates, even my husband at the time ---- the one who begged me to make it of course!)

Oh, dear. I would have enjoyed having someone make me eggplant parmigiana. My household isn't fond of it, either, but I love it.

Kids have such a delightful way with being dramatic ;)
