Mommy Mondays: Lets Talk About Forgiveness!

Hello Fit Maine Mommies!

Normally, Kaite and I would write about how a successful a recipe turned out. Or perhaps comment on a yummy new dish we tried . Instead of tooting our own horn today, I'm going to tell you about a dinner I made last night that was on the brink of horrible. I attempted to make fish tacos for the first time with Mahi Mahi. I had never cooked this fish before and wasn't sure what the flavor was going to be like. The darker the fish meat, the more "fishy flavor" your dish is going to be. My fish fillet had a lot of dark meat and when I cooked it it turned into a mouthful of fish smelly yuckiness! The rest of the recipe was good such as the red cabbage slaw and the yogurt dressing but I couldn't get over the taste of the fish!

My reason for telling you this is to assure you that not every meal will be amazing. Not every dish will be delicious and family approved. It doesn't mean that we should give up on ever making the dish again. Instead we should try to tweak the meal to make it more appealing! Forgive yourself if something burns or you overcook a dish. I may not have finished my fish taco-it was that bad! But I will try again one day!!

Also realize that we are all learning! Even the best of chefs can still learn!

Forgive yourself and learn from your "dinner fails"!

Love,

Kendra and Kaite
