since friday my daughter who is 2 & 5 months has refused to eat anything we have cooked her. She says she wants it and as soon as it is ready she says no and refuses point blank to eat. Has anyone else experienced this. She has also been saying her belly hurts but not sure if thats just attention seeking or whether its to do with her not eating. We keep telling her that her belly hurts because she is hungry but no luck yet

My son is coming up to 15 months and he is doing this, I spend HOURS cooking him yummy stuff and if I'm lucky he will take a bite out of it. It is driving me crazy. Some days he even refuses his favourite foods, and some days he will eat gigantic portions. I never know how much or how little he is going to eat. At the moment he seems to be OK with just one meal a day and he refuses to touch anything at other mealtimes.

Is she going to the loo more or less the same? She could have a bug if her tummy is hurting or she could be exerting her independence as a two year old would. Are you letting her feed herself or are you trying to. I think all toddlers go through this but if you're worried or it's gone on for a week maybe take her to your gp.

My daughter used to be the same. I remembered I spend lots of time to make food for her and tried to feed her. Sometimes I had to turn on the TV so I could fed her as much as possible while she was watching TV. She was extremely hard and drove me mad every dinner time.

But when she was 2.5 ys she just suddenly changed her attitude. she is nearly 3 and eats everyhting. If she doesn?t want any lunch, I don?t give her anything till dinner. Sometimes she just has 2 meals a day but she is very healthy.(even she is smaller than other children)

      Xmas lunch at local pubs/restaurants?

      By David Peckham · Posted

      I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.

      Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !

      That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.

      Xmas lunch at local pubs/restaurants?

      This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.
