Chefs in Training

Lily and Porter (her twin) had fun "helping" me cook.  Who knew that a bucket of macaroni could give me a good 45 minutes to cook dinner?  IMG_4462              They took their job of filling up the measuring cup very seriously and worked well as a cooking team.  

IMG_4463                   Before I knew it, the floor was covered in macaroni.  This only created another fun game of picking up all the noodles.   Don't worry I didn't use these noodles to cook with - but don't think I didn't think about it - they are boiled after all.  I didn't think, however, that the occasional dog hair would be too appetizing.

IMG_4465                    Porter joined us for dinner, and after, he and Lily bolted upstairs to play.  James and I actually enjoyed a few moments sitting on the couch after dinner - a rarity in the post-dinner pre-bedtime routine.  Porter, when can you join us again?

That last picture is priceless! And great idea about the macaroni-I'll have to try that!
