Picky Eater

Ugh, Bill and I never wanted to force Katie to try new things - we always hoped that as she got older she would get more adventurous in her eating, but I fear she is getting worse. Last week we had a huge fight over trying a small peanut butter sandwich. She likes nuts and she likes bread - just don't put the two together. I thought that maybe if we made the peanut butter she would eat it - wrong!
We had her put cashews ( we didn't have peanuts ) into the food processor and chopped them up. She would eat the whole can of cashews if we let her - she wouldn't touch them chopped up. She tried a small amount, but would not have it on bread or crackers.
Bill thought maybe if we chopped up a Kit Kat ( which is one of her favorite things ) she would eat it and then eat the cashews - wrong. She refused to eat the Kit Kat - uuuggghhh!!!
Well after spending some time in her room she came out and eat the Kit Kat and the crushed cashews - but said she didn't like it.
She is one tough cookie. I hope we figure this out before she starts kindergarten next year.
