Betty Crockers In Training







We did a little baking earlier this week & the girls took their "j0bs" very seriously! When I suggested peanut butter cookies (we have a surplus of pb at the moment) Honey was insistent that we make chocolate chip instead. I explained that we needed to use up some of the peanut butter. She said "but they can have chocolate chips in them though! it's my job!" She was afraid that if we made chip-less cookies, there would be nothing for her to do! So rather than put the poor child out of work, we improvised the recipe and added the chips & it worked out just fine. Sweetie measured out the brown sugar, Honey was on chips and Lovey did white sugar while I fired in all the rest of the ingredients before they could make too much of a mess with theirs! Sweetie managed to ingest quite a bit of the brown sugar and still spill some on the floor. She had fun though!
Once we had the dough all mixed up they were very keen to taste their concoction & were very happy to have a couple spoonfuls of the batter. I may have sampled a bit too... They turned out great!

Honey got busted "cleaning up" Sweetie's sugar spillage!
