This book is that type of book where I refl ect on moments in my life that I felt were important to write about. Life has so many choices or decisions that sometimes you think back about some of them that were made or were not made. Think back to your favorite song, place to go, or just things you used to do when you were growing up. How does it make you feel when you think about them now? Think about the first time you had to deal with adversity where things didn't go so well. That is what life is all about and I wanted to put mine in a book. I am just like everyone in this world trying to make a difference in one way or another. When you read this book, realize that we all have a story to tell, you just have to be willing to tell it. We tell our stories everyday whether it is at the dinner table, out with friends, or to help your children deal with the growing pains as you did years earlier. What I hope you take from this story is that you can learn, laugh, or just relate from some of my experiences.

Book excerpt: "I'd always thought food was pretty straightforward: you're hungry, you eat; you're not, you don't. Then I became a mother." So begins Betsy Block's humorous, life-changing book on the ultimate of all makeovers: improving the family meal. But how is her plan even possible when eleven-year old Zack's favorite food is Halloween candy; little Maya is so picky that she'll only eat cut squares of white bread; and her husband's idea of a gift is an electric fryer? Determined not to give up the good-food fight, Betsy comes up with a creative ten-step makeover plan.
