From Courtship To Your Plate

Getting kids to eat their fruits and veggies just got a lot easier, thanks to a pair of New York grandparents.
A whimsical new book, “Funny Food: 365 Fun, Healthy, Silly, Creative Breakfasts,” is turning eggs, waffles, oatmeal and more into edible art.
Though the idea is now used to teach kids to eat healthy, co-authors Bill and Claire Wurtzel thought of it long before they had daughters Lisa and Nina.
Bill, an advertising art director and jazz guitarist, used playful breakfasts to court Claire, a longtime educator, after they met at a dance in 1960.
