Potatoes come in all colours 'round here!

I can't believe I've done this.....


Lachlan hates and I mean HATES potato done any way except as chips - not mashed potato, not roast potatoes, not baked potato with lashings of butter and sour cream, not shepherd's pie (heaven help us if the dreaded mashed potato is touching the other nice food.  He goes into hysterics and refuses to eat anything that's touched the white stuff) - just chips and wedges.  I am ashamed to admit that I have taken to colouring our mashed potato just so that he will eat it.  He's still not in love with mashed potato but 60% of it got eaten tonight which is another big fat tick to me!  
Is there a way to get him to eat the Lamb casserole that the rest of us devoured tonight??  His dinner looks a little sparse tonight because I did roast pumpkin which he also flat-out refuses to even touch...

Bev, I found my way here through Jonny and Jessima's blog. I was interested because I used to know Elliot quite well when he was a baby (I lived with his family for a while.) I hope you don't mind if I look in occasionally?
I enjoyed scanning your blog, and I love what you did with the potatoes :)
