Our oldest, Haleigh, is always asking if she can help me in the kitchen. Most of the time, it's a real help, but occasionally, she wants to "create" and this can end up being quite a mess! This summer, the kids participated in our library's summer reading program. Haleigh, once again, checked out a Paula Dean for kids cookbook. Last time she did this we picked a few recipes and tried them out with a success here and there. This time, Haleigh did most of the cooking all by herself. And I'll tell you, I was impressed! What a difference a year can make! This time, she tried a few out on the family and honestly, this crowd can be tough. The family favorite was homemade pizza (half pepperoni and half bacon).She also tried ambrosia salad, smoothies and homemade cupcakes with icing made from scratch. I'm sure we'll have some more recipes to share since she is taking a baking class at our home school co op this year!
