Even I Have a Weakness

We eat at home because our kids have so many food issues. We have learned through this, how much better the food we make ourselves is. It tastes better, makes us feel better, and is not full of the junk we are trying so hard to avoid.

However ...

In order to keep everything up front and honest on my blog, I must confess. I give in to the weakness occasionally. I did just this week.

Yes, that's a bowl from Chipotle. Yes (hangs head in shame), that's Chipotle Tabasco Sauce on top in order to produce fire in my mouth. Yes, I ate the entire thing.

My youngest son got guacamole and chips. He loves their gaucamole.

I didn't take a picture of my older son's lunch. He was too busy eating to let Mom snap a picture of it. He had a bowl with beans, tomatoes, lettuce, guacamole, cheese, and sour cream. Then he used chips to eat it like a nacho type dip. And, yes, I have marked him well. He topped it with Chipotle Tobasco Sauce. He likes a little heat, as well.

We don't eat there often because, no matter how much I like a good bowl from Chipotle, even I would get sick of the same thing all the time. It helps that the closest Chipotle is an hour away. But it's the only place our sons can eat safely with their food issues. They are great about changing gloves if you just request it and everything is made in it's own container so you don't have to worry about what else was on the surface before your food is prepared.

Talk soon.
