Not Hungry Mommy!

The fourth day of the battle consisted of a rather unusual situation. The Queen of Night told everyone that it was dinner time. The Princess of Dragons eagerly came to the table to see what the Royal Feast would be. She was not exactly pleased with Crispy Meatloaf Wellington, but she was eager to please the Queen of Night. The High Prince as well came to the table thinking that the meal was something that it was not. Once he realized what it actually was, he was also not pleased but eager to please the Queen. Both insisted on having their dinner before the Dragon King could appear. The Queen decided to join in the feast with them while they waited for the Dragon King to come home from his many trials. When she called the Spare Prince to the table, his response who was confusing. "No, Mommy. No dinner. No more food," the Spare Prince shouted. "Are you telling me that you are refusing to eat dinner?" the Queen asked in astonishment. "No more dinner,"...

Those Aren't Noodles

Day three of the war waged on. The Spare Prince had yet to take a bite of the food that the Queen of Night had cooked. This night, because there was supposed to be soccer practice at the usual dinner time, the meal was a crock pot dish. It was Crock-Pot Chicken Alfredo Lasagna. This was the first dish that the High Prince actually ate in the initial War without any complaint and ate it faster than everyone else in the Kingdom. It had not been one made often simply because the hot summer did not seem like a good time to be eating this dish. But now with crazy soccer schedules, more crock pot meals have had to be made in order to ensure healthy dinners are ate. Much to the Queen of Night's surprise, before it was even time for everyone to enjoy the meal, the Princess of Dragons ate two whole plates of the lasagna before anyone else had sat down at the table. She ate one plate and promptly asked for more spouting that she absolutely loved this dish. The High Prince got jealous of ...

A New Battle Begins...

The kingdom had been calm and happy for quite a long time. It had appeared that the war had been won. While little skirmishes would occasionally break out between the High Prince and the Princess of Dragons and their meals, overall they were eating everything put in front of them. The kingdom was enjoying the moment of peace. Until one fateful day the, Spare Prince finally decided that he had had enough. It was a new school year and the High Prince and the Princess of Dragons were going to school. It was also a new soccer season of which the Princess of Dragons was finally playing. The Spare Prince wanted desperately to play but due to his young age, he wouldn't be able to play soccer for another three seasons. This did not go over well. In order to try to give the Spare Prince something to look forward to, the Queen of Night began taking him to a another kingdom to play with kids while she perfected her physique. This move was double-sided. The Queen of Night was indeed preparing ...

Pillow fights!

It was supposed to be a day of relaxation for everyone with a simple meal. Things don't always go as planned though. The Dragon King had no royal duties scheduled, but the kingdom doesn't rest. Instead of the relaxing day planned, the Dragon King ended up taking care of business most of the day. His lack of fun time with his children weighed heavily on him bringing his mood down lower. The High Prince always treasured Sundays with his father and waited rather patiently for the Dragon King to finish his tasks. Occasionally he would ask questions about what the Dragon King was doing and even tried to help him out even though that was pretty much impossible. His thoughts were solely based on getting the Dragon King to finish up so they could spend time together. The Princess of Dragons and the "Spare" Prince were taking naps per the Queen of Night's insistence. It was the perfect time for just the two of them. As the day wore on, it became clearer that this quiet t...

Mashed Cauliflower Shepherd's Pie

The feast of Peasants! Once again it was time for feast to be had, and once again, it was time to rise up against the oppression and villainy of the Dragon King and his beautiful Queen. Would tonight be the night the High Prince and his siblings would finally garner a victory? Or would the King stand firm and crush the rebellion once again? Tonight's meal, common dish among the general populations throughout the kingdom: Shepherd's Pie! A perfect dish for the heirs. Meat, potatoes, cheese, and vegetables. Should be simple enough for the Princess and her two brothers. Unfortunate, but not unexpectedly, the begging and pleading started immediately. "Father! May we eat this with our most beloved of all condiments, Ketchup?" the High Prince pleaded. "Of course, son. As your mother and I explained before, you can season your meal to your tastes, as long as you consume it. That is all we ask!" The Dragon King responded, his displeasure at the repetitive na...

Mmmm....Bacon....Mmmm....

This is it. The High Prince thought. One more dinner and I get my party. The Dragon King had said he had to finish every meal this week in order to get his birthday party. The Queen of Night had prepared an easy meal the night before knowing that spaghetti had been considered an ok meal in his eyes. He had finished that one with very little problems. Everyone, including the Dragon King, had praised him on finishing the meal in record time. Tonight, the Queen had said would be a very different meal and hoped it would be easy so that all her hard work for his party would not be in vain. The Queen of Night had prepared nearly the entire meal while he was away for his schooling and said that it would only take a matter of minutes to finish when the Dragon King returned from his official duties. The meal had no smell that he could discern, which bothered him. It didn't look like much either since he only saw a bowl and four pieces of bread on a tray. The Queen was nervous, but she k...

Meat Loaf, Potatoes, and the Fight against Grandfather Time!

How Hard is Eating Meatloaf? Again that time came, and again the vile Dragon King summoned his family to the banquet hall for dinner. Again, the High Prince, the Princess of Dragons, and the "Spare" Prince begrudgingly sat around the table, the anxiety of another dinner weighing down on them. Tonight's battle? Meatloaf with potatoes. The most basic of meals, with a slight flair the Queen of Night was known throughout the land. The Dragon King, having other duties to attend to, stated the rules as normal. "Alright children of ours." The Dragon King began, "You know what is required of you. Consume what is in front of you. It's meatloaf and mashed potatoes." Immediately the High Prince butted in. "Father, may we have ketchup with our dinner?" "Of course son, you can have stuff to flavor your food as you want. However, you will still eat this meal." Ketchup was provided to High Prince and the Princess of Dragons. "Alr...
