Cooking with the girls

Both girls are so happy to help out in the kitchen. When Mavis was here they were both happy to help wash up and most days they want to help prepare dinner by cutting up the vegies and cheese etc.

One night we made pizza which they happily made and then, with a bigger grin on their face, happily ate. They're not big fans of pizza (except for last night when Kendall ate three pieces of Hawaiian - but that's for a different post!) so anything to get their buy-in is a good thing in my eyes.

Last year, Henry and Karen bought the girls a learning tower for christmas. This thing is fantastic as it brings them up to counter height safely. This was really important for them and I thank Henry and Karen a lot for such a great pressie.

 Playing with food. Nothing beats it! I used to do it with cheezels (I think every Aussie kid does) and it's so much fun!

 Making pizza.....

 Yes, Kendall loves olives!

 Just the essentials for Syd - ham, cheese, pineapple and peppers! Woo hoo.

  And, yes...tomato sauce goes with everything. Grapes, honeydew melon, apple, pineapple all extremly scrumptious and better with tomato sauce.
