Do you have adventurous taste buds? Do you like to try new things? I love trying new foods and recipes.
It reminds me of being on a cruise with my husband last summer and every evening on the dinner menu was one “odd” item to try-escargot (snails), frogs legs, etc. Of course I had to try them each night…the boys didn’t believe me when I told them Mommy had frog’s legs! (Their Daddy had no part in that though, he’s not terribly adventurous when it comes to food…jumping out of airplanes, okay! Sushi-no way! lol)
The boys seemed to start off trying a wide variety of foods as babies but as they get older their little tastes become more and more narrow. Trying unfamiliar things is definitely not in their repertoire-even unfamiliar desserts make them turn up their noses!
Sometimes I resort to trickery and bribery to get them to try new foods. My middle son is a strawberry addict so I can usually get him to try anything with those as an ingredient. Like these amazing (and amazingly easy!) mini strawberry cakes.
These little cakes couldn’t be more simple to make and with strawberry season in full swing it’s the perfect time to try them out.

Mmmmmm, found these on Sand and Sisal’s roundup today! These look soooo good! I am pinning for future consumption! One question, do you roll out the dough and put it on top? I am so not a baker!
Melissa Riker
No, just sprinkle it on top-no rolling necessary! (We try to keep it simple over here!)

Goodies sends very small samples. Not worth the 7.99 to me at all. Not what they show in the pics. I cancelled after one box.
Melissa Riker
Thanks for the feedback Rhonda! I found this post that shows the actual contents of someone’s box with the approximate value of the snacks: https://reviewsuntilyoudrop.blogspot.com/2013/04/goodies-co-subscription-box-march-2013.html
