I bake- but only at Christmas time. I turn into Mrs Field’s herself. But, so help me god,, not a day past Dec 24! The mess, the calories, the kids INSISTING on helping – I can’t take it for too long!

This is my new strategy for ensuring that things get eaten. My son actually devoured roasted asparagus the other day. Devoured. And commented several times on how delicious it was.

Yes, you heard me right. Asparagus.

Why?

Cuz HE rolled them around in the olive oil, and sprinkled on the salt and pepper, and supervised my putting the pan in the broiler.

He made them. So of course, they were awesome.

Oh sure, if you want to do things the easy way!

Hee. I kid.

I think that’s a great idea because the second best thing to making your own cookies when you’re four is PUTTING SPRINKLES AND ICING ON STUFF!

Next time maybe cure the boredom blues by baking some of those cookies that come in a roll, the kind that you, oh I don’t know, don’t have to do yourself? That’s my kinda baking, and then you can do all the decorating (the fun part). Then again, my mom’s idea of baking was from mixes and boxes so I didn’t know the diff till I moved out and met my mom-in-law. But he’ll have that memory of mom and son baking for many years, which is what counts. You are brave! If you can’t tell, I’m so not a cook!

I’m still scared and still cleaning up from our last attempt at making cookies but you have inspired me to try again. Now if only I could get off this couch.

Yeah, we’ve eaten a few shells, too. Funny that the kids never even notice.

Oh man…P LOVES to cook. It doesn’t matter what it is. And he’ll come back into the kitchen from time to time and peek in the window of the oven. He’s going to make some lucky girl a fine househusband someday.
