Happy Valentine's Day!

I decided that I would let the kids have their own cookies to make and decorate. I have been feeling guilty about not letting S help me with the nice cookies. So... I committed myself to let go and let them have fun learning how to be creative with food.

I'm pretty sure that all S thinks you can buy sugar and flour in are 25 lb bags. Some people buy 25 lb bags of dog food, we buy 25 lb bags of sugar and flour. Along with the 5 lb bag of chocolate chips. I. love. Costco.



S is really coming along. She likes to roll the dough out herself and now cut and place the cookies onto the cookie sheet. I was very impressed. This is a huge change from her days of mounding the dough together and calling it her "best cookie ever".



Can you SEE the concentration? She's just like her momma.

And that cute "assistant" in the corner.... he's dangerous. A hazard to all things organized... like cookie making.



The Assistant... he assisted in eating.



All around it was a good time. S really enjoyed doing it "all myself." Mommy got to relax and enjoy sharing something she loves with her kids.

And the recipe... ahhh. That's top secret. Like get me ex-communicated from 'The Fam' top secret.
