Eden loves to stand on a stool and help me do things in the kitchen. This is usually not helpful to me, but she loves it. She helped me scoop out all the dry ingredients and insisted on licking her finger to taste them all (it turns out she's not a fan of baking soda). She wanted her turn to crack an egg into the bowl (or as she says, "Bang it on the table and squish it in the bowl- which is exactly what she did). Then Andy and I picked egg shell out of the batter.
After that she got bored and decided to do her second favorite thing in the kitchen- wipe things off. She wiped off the counters and the floor and the table and me and the cat...
Once we were ready to pour the chocolate chips in, she was interested again. It was time to snitch cookie dough! She pulls it right off the mixer. You may notice the two packages of cookies in the background of this picture. Those cookies aren't homemade. It's totally different.
The dough turned out great. Oh, the cookies did too. Even with all our dough tasting we ended up with about 50 cookies. And sadly, they're about all gone. Good things never last...

You guys would get along great with my girls. Friday night they made a cake Mandy style. She mixes up the batter and then bakes one 9" layer and eats the other half of the batter.
We also wipe off our cat...we do it when he comes in after having a good roll in the dirt. We use a wipie.
Jill I love thse pics of you cooking. I can't wait till my little one is big enough to cook with. :)
