Alex the Chef


Recently I let Alex and Elizabeth make a cake all by themselves. Well, almost. I was in the dining room on the computer while they measured and mixed all the ingredients for the chocolate cake. I must admit I was a little nervous about them using the mixer but they were wonderful. They did a great job and the cake was a success. I have found through my 11 plus years as a mother, that the best way to get a child to eat is to let them help you make it. No problems with cakes being eaten here but I have heard my fair share of " EW..What's that? " or "I'm not eating that".
My rugrats are spoiled. They know that I do not like to cook. If I ask them "what do
you want for dinner tonite?" I don't get the normal answer of hamburgers or spaghetti, I get the names of restaurants instead. I could get my feelings hurt but I love eating out too.
A big hug going out to my friend Carole...I will be thinking of you tomorrow.Hugs...
