Day Twenty Six: Nothing New Birthday Lunch

Since today is the big birthday for my daughter (3 years old!) I thought I would make a special lunch for her.  

Special lunch  = new recipe

Martha's Spinach Linguini with Ham and Broccoli seemed like a good choice.  

Pasta = good
Ham  = good
Broccoli = good

Somehow, the sum of all three of these items touching did not go over well.  I forgot one thing: 


New recipe to a three-year old =  the most horrible thing on Earth.

Brown the ham:

Add milk and allow to thicken:

 Toss over noodles for pasta lunch:

Even my usually-easy-to-please hubby didn't dig this recipe.  Granted, he is like a kid in many ways, but he's usually happy to try something new.

Mom's New Recipe = A Flop
