A family adventure: She and her husband, Andy, would cook thirty new dishes in a single month--and her kids would try them all. Was it nuts for two working parents to take on this challenge? Yes. But did it transform family dinner from stressful grind to happy ritual? Completely. Here, Rosenstrach--creator of the beloved blog and book \u003ci\u003eDinner: A Love Story\u003c\/i\u003e--shares her story, offering weekly meal plans, tons of organizing tips, and eighty-plus super-simple, kid-vetted recipes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Stuck in a rut?
