Fun dinner tonight

I did something tonight that I've been wanting to for a long time now. I let the kids make their own dinners. I put aluminum foil in a big soup bowl, and then let the kids cut up hot dogs and baby potatoes, then they got to add whatever veggies or bits that they liked. R chose corn, mushrooms, tomatoes, and worcestershire sauce. We added ground pepper, sea salt, canola oil, and a bit of water. E chose a lot of the same, but added raisins (to every one's) and carrots, skipped the mushrooms and tomatoes, and opted for soy sauce instead of worcestershire. Then we wrapped up the foil and threw it on the grill for a while. It all stewed up nicely and turned out great. I hope we can do it again soon - endless possibilities, fun experimentation, and the kids get to have some control. All good. :)
