I didn't get home until fairly late last night, so I missed dinner with the family. Suzy filled me in though. She made yummy tortilla soup. The kids had some interesting reactions.
1) Jace, who is super picky loved it. He is learning how to eat by himself (okay, so sometimes we let him eat by himself, I don't know how much actual learning occurs). He even asked for a second bowl (although we should have made him finish the first bowl, which was mostly on his clothes).
2) Faith said, "Yeah mommy! I love soup!" and then ate 2 bites and declared she was done.
3) Kate threw a hissy fit. She REFUSED to eat such disgusting food. Suzy took her food away and let her know when she was ready to be grateful, she could have it back. She spent the next 10 minutes going through various "constipated" expressions as she tried so hard to force those hated words out of her mouth, but just couldn't do it. Finally, after much drama, she expressed her thanks. Then proceeded to lick the bowl clean and ask for more.

Poor Suzy, she has to deal with these kinds of situations almost on a daily basis. I just don't know where these kids could have gotten their pickiness.
