It wouldnt be so bad if it were just he and I, but it is the kids that I

worry about. What do you do when your significant other doesnt see the

reason to have NO animal ingredients in your childrens foods?? On a regular

basis he is fine with it, just when we are out, or at a birthday or something

like that he says...auh, let them have it. I feel like letting HIM have it!

LOL!! Sometimes my kids seem to just not like the stuff which is great, but

sometimes they do. They are ages 4 and 2. Any ideas??

I'd enlist the help of your friends & family. If you talk to the

parents of the birthday child *before* the party, and discuss your

family's needs (just as you would if someone was allergic to some

ingredient, which is exactly how a good host should understand it), then

there's less to contend with on the day, with everyone watching. I've

found it helps to offer to bring something to share with everyone. For

example, you could bring the (soy) ice cream.
