Noodles and Eggs...and Ramen

Growing up, my mom would feed me Eggs and Noodles for meals. It was obviously a cheap and easy to make meal...and since I would eat it, it was a triple score for her. As a kid she would tell me that when she was growing up, kids ate their Eggs and Noodles with sugar on it and grownups would eat theirs with vinegar and lettuce. To this day putting Vinegar and lettuce on Eggs and Noodles turns me off. I believe I must still be a kid at heart.

About once a month, I still make this to eat for myself. These pictures are from the first time I served it to Christian. He LOVED it!!! This was a wonderful thing for me as Nicholas would never touch Eggs and Noodles with a 10-foot pole. He does, however, love Ramen noodles. Usually when I make Eggs and Noodles, I now also make Ramen for the boys. As Christian has gotten a little older, he has gotten pickier as well. He will no longer eat Eggs and Noodles, but I don't know if it is because I just haven't given it to him at the right moment (picky, remember) or if it is because he truly doesn't like it.

As for their Daddy? He turns his nose up in disgust at the mere mention of Eggs and Noodles. Fine with me...that means I get more of it!!
