On the Stove!

Well, I got brave. I decided to let the boys cook ON the stove! I stayed very close. They did great and they were sooo excited about it. S told his Papa all about it when he got home from work, and he told Grandma and Grandpa when he talked to them on the phone a week later. We were making little meat patties and our little cuties did it ALL by themselves. They cooked the hamburger and spices, mixed the bread dough, rolled out the dough with rolling pins, and I got brave again and let them cut out the squares themselves! (They used butter knives. Nothing sharp.) The squares were surprisingly even and close to the same size. I wasn't expecting that! They then filled up the squares with meat themselves, pinched them shut and put them on the pan. The only thing Mom had to do for dinner that night was over-see and make sure everyone was safe and actually put them in the oven to bake. Way to go boys!

S was concentrating so hard on keeping the knife straight and B can't keep a straight face for a picture lately.
