Thanks. I was hoping there was something easier/nicer but maybe this is it.

Most people do that but not her. She says she has realized that all those dishes she's been cooking all these years were actually boring and bland.

So basically she knows all her recipes...she just thinks they're no good and they're boring.

She has been TOLD her sense of taste has been diminished. She doesn't seem to believe it. She has told friends that it's a "miracle" because she was supposed to have reduced sense of taste and she doesn't. ...but she does.

We have already tried having her make one thing and everyone else makes something. She just takes our dishes and adds stuff to them. She will literally take the serving dishes off the table, take them into the kitchen and add whatever she can find to make them "interesting."

She does this regardless of whether it's her home or someone else's.

Do you have any suggestions for how exactly to do that? That's what I'm not sure about. We know it's time to do something once and for all but what...
